I would like to add my appreciation to this thread as well. I wish Ledger had been around when I was teaching bookkeeping. It takes all of the gobbledygook out of the subject and makes the subject crystal clear.
I don't mind the lack of automation in Ledger. Other bookkeeping packages only teach you how to use the package. Ledger teaches you how to do bookkeeping.
