To be sure, as an adjective, "split" pretty reliably indicates the accounting sense. As a noun it likely means the GNC-internal one -- but only when coming from someone who's aware of the distinction. AFAIK, that's a GnuCash-specific usage. Counterexample: the OP wrote: | I've tried to learn how to do a three way split like entering [...] No problem; I do *not* mean this as a criticism, however mild. My main point was to give a heads-up to newish users (or at least, newish list subscribers) that they might see the term "split" used in a sense they weren't expecting; and if so, how to make heads or tails (umm, debits or credits? :-) ) of what's being said. - Eric _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
