Hello all,

With the following,

(org-babel-do-load-languages
 'org-babel-load-languages
 '((ledger . t)))

And

#+BEGIN_SRC ledger
1970-01-01 example
 A  1
 B
#+END_SRC

Upon typing C-c C-c, I see no errors in echo area, but there is an error hiding in *Messages* buffer, I've included it at the end of this message.

I think more ideal would be if at least there was something in the echo area about the error. I began assuming otherwise, such as maybe ob-ledger was not really a working thing.

I checked the following in a terminal, and the exit code was 1, via "echo $?".

"printf '1970-01-01 example\n A  1\n B' | ledger -f - bal"

Regards,
-Brady

This a ledger issue, not org.  You can fix this by using entry names
that are not single letters.  Try AA and BB and it should work.

I would hope that if ledger throws an error, with exit code 1 and a message, that ob-ledger might notify me of this. The results were empty and the echo area was blank.

Yes, better error handling would be good.  You might like to propose
some code?  If ledger does return an error status, that could be caught
and handled, I would imagine.
