Actually, I just have a script which pulls the rates from XE.com every 
morning.  Breaks every year or so, but other than that it's fine

The correct "accounting" way to handle deviations from the xe.com rates 
is to post the difference in fx gain/loss

I think that the only thing really needed is a template page to assist 
in entering all the correct parts of the fx transaction so that  one 
doesn't need to calculate all the little bits manually (on a calculator) 
first.

I will post my complete ledger entries next week, but it's fairly 
straightforward once you get the hang of it. (I also think it's quite 
correct as is)
