Just tried it out, and had some issues with whitespace.
Specifically, if you use a single whitespace character between the end
of the account name and the amount in a transaction, it complains
"could not balance this transaction (too many missing amounts)",
because I think it's including the amount in with the account name.
Here's an example transaction that fails:
2010-04-09 Invoice
Customers:Customer1:Invoice:Labor $-120.00
Customers:Customer1:Invoice:Adjustments $30.00
Customers:Customer1:Invoice:Travel $-10.00
ACS:Assets:Accounts Receivable:Customer1
I generally use a single tab on each end to bookend the account names,
and C ledger handles this without issue.
