I was forced into doing this under Quicken because the file was so large
that it was unmanageable (possibly because Intuit said to do it) If that
ever becomes a problem with GnuCash, I'll just make a copy of the

I assume that if I attempt to quit GnuCash with unsaved data, it will remind
me to save... but the current indications of unsaved data files have been
