Plain Text Accounting (PTA)

I see a lot of people in here using hledger or beancount over ledger. Could somebody explain the differences? Looking to get back into PTA, but am facing some choice paralysis now.

Understandable. Docs like https://plaintextaccounting.org/#comparisons and https://hledger.org/faq.html#why-was-hledger-created- try to help. (I'm hledger's lead developer.)

Don't be afraid to try them all a little; you can mostly-automatically convert between them.
