Yes, that would work although I don't need to watch my ledger that
often!  Maybe if I were into day trading... but that requires actual
funds, not to mention a strong constitution these days ;-)

More importantly, it means looking somewhere else other than my org
file.  Nothing exists outside org-mode these days!!  When I turn on my
computer, it immediately starts ratpoison with emacs as the sole
application and my agenda immediately in view filling the whole
monitor...

Thanks,
