Can't resist such a call! ;)

What I need right now is something that can take a CSV (or whatever) and
import it as a GL transaction. Just a trivial CSV like this:

Account,Credit,Debit,Memo
1060,0,60,Deposit petty cash
1100,60,60,

I guess having an off-band way to set the transaction-wide fields would
be appropriate too.

CSV are a little bit limit in their structure to input complete
transactions in LS, which makes this a bit limited too, but you get the
idea...

A.

PS: right now, I'm inputting our last pay in LS and it's pretty much
always the same pattern or similar pattern, so I could write a custom
script to generate this CSV and same myself a lot of time.
