Compact notation

[hrj]

Would be cool to have a single-line compact notation, such as:

. 2014/Jan/1  cash  2000   ; withdrawl

The dot at the beginning flags the special syntax. Some other character could also be used.

This would work only when there is a default account in scope. Something like:

{
def defaultAccount = "bank" 

. 2014/Jan/1  cash    2000   ; withdrawl
. 2014/Feb/2  rent    3000   ; paid rent for Jan
}

This notation can cover about 90 % of transactions

Note that this requires a way to define scopes. Ideally, that should be implemented first.
