Hi, I'm also interested in this as well. Is it possible to use the python plugin to pull down pricing from Yahoo Finance perhaps? I was also interested in building a datasource that uses Rendezvous to pull down real-time pricing from a distribution platform (a la RMDS or TIB). On Fri, 2004-01-16 at 17:05, Jody Goldberg wrote:

Is there a free one or is there an inexpensive one available that would work with gnumeric?The infrastructure is there in gnumeric to support it. However, the only 'feed' we have a plugin for is a sample version that just reads keys and value from a named pipe and makes the updates available in the sheet. You could use that in conjunction with some of the existing python/perl modules that pull data off of the web. Debian has 'libfinance-yahooquote-perl' There are sure to be others. It's not a true realtime data feed, but the limitation is not technical. we dont have licenses to reuters or bloomberg. _______________________________________________ gnumeric-list mailing list gnumeric-list gnome org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnumeric-list
