Well, ledger and hledger are different tools that use the same (very
similar) data files.  The invocation of each is different.  org supports
ledger out of the box but not hledger.

The ledger manual is good enough to get started, in my opinion, if you
stick to the simple examples and don't try to customise much.

There is a short org ledger tutorial on Worg.  I'm offline at the moment
so cannot give you the link but it's there!  I wrote it... :)
