I have not used this yet, but see how it could be a very good thing: Suppose you set up a terminal/workstation similar to a POS cash register to deal with other things like inventory changes in a shop. Then as you use up materials, you could type in a very small amount of keystrokes such as project number, and part number and quan, and get instant feedback if the part number or project number does not exist yet, otherwise a paperless entry of an inventory transaction for manufacturing accounting.
The special purpose workstation would be a generator of scheme commands and receive responses, and it could do so with a touchscreen and touchpad interface wall mounted in a dusty or humid environment for cheap. No, this kind of feature is less likely to be used by one doing bookkeeping data entry. That person seems never to write much code, or when in that mode never to write much code.

Failed, I suppose, in that no one uses them or cares very much ... _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
