Mine is:
/usr/local/bin/Moneydance
which is a soft to  -> /usr/local/moneydance/Moneydance
and
/home/lba/inv/mdance/billybob.md

To make sure it wasn't an issue with the soft link,
I pasted the actual target of the soft link
into the command line window with the same result.

The result being that the data from moneydance.md came up
and billybob was ignored and unchanged.

Was there something to prepare billybob.md prior to invoking Moneydance?
