I love ledger and I'm really grateful and happy I found it :-)
I've been using virtual transactions for a few months but I'm not yet
happy with the way I'm doing it. I have transactions like this:
2017-10-01 * Opening Balance
Assets:CurrentAccount $1000
Equity:OpeningBalances
2017-10-

Sometimes the assert expressions I'm adding to my ledger file fail and I
don't immediately know why. If I have something like this:
assert account("Assets:CurrentAccount").total == $123.45
and I'm wrong about the total, then I'll just be told that I'm wrong,
and not what the correct value is. W
sets:CurrentAccount' prints $1000. Bug?? How
can I see what ledger *thinks* the total is when it evaluates the
assert?

Andrew: You can probably create a small file that doesn't have your
financial details in it by deleting all of the file except for a first
guess at what the relevant part is, then checking you can still
reproduce the error. 'Binary search' should get you there if your first
guess doesn't work. Th
It actually causes an assertion failure for me, so I think it is a
ledger bug.

Hi
I can raise a bug about this, but I'm posting here in the hope of getting a
clue re what is going on to cause this and maybe fix it.
Given this ledger file:
2018-12-09 * Investment
; food:
Assets:Investments:Funds1 GOOG @ $1000
Assets:Investments:Funds1 BL
I can't make much sense of these outputs either!

I seem to be having trouble with automatic transactions involving elided
amounts. Possibly the problem is my understanding how this is supposed to work
of course.
I see in the manual that "One thing you cannot do ... is elide amounts in an
automated transaction" -- but the Huququ'llah example
