smtm-0.7.0 -- Show Me The Money, a global stock ticker Dec 15, 1999, 21 :19 UTC (0 Talkback[s]) (2659 reads) |
SUMMARY
- Stock ticker application for North American and European exchanges
- Displays portfolio profit or loss for foreign and domestic stocks
- Firewall and proxy configuration possible for several common settings
- Fully configurable Perl/Tk program runs under Linux and some other OS
using the Perl from ActiveState (www.activestate.com)
- Released under the GNU General Public License
CHANGES SINCE 0.6.0
- Added support for simple proxy firewalls via --proxy http://1.2.3.4:80
- Added support for account+password firewalls: info can be specified
via cmd-line args or in a new "account / password" window
- Added test for previous_close != 0 to avoid potential division by zero
- Replaced destroy() with withdraw() for closing windows, seems to avoid
triggering a segfault error which is presumably inside perl/tk
- Renamed option variables for clarity (yeah right)
- Added LNUX to default portfolio
CHANGES SINCE 0.5.2.
- Allow for additional specification of number of shares held as well
as the (ISO) cross-currency pair to map into domestic monies
- Use this info to display net portfolio gain or loss in window title
- Additional option --wide, and menu selector, for `wide' display with
per share gain or loss and total holdings
- menus now have underlined shortcuts for ALT-x
- more code cleanup
