Description Weonbin 2009-02-23 06:46:23 UTC

This small program retrieves stocks information from finance.yahoo.com and displays them on your desktop.

I made an ebuild for those who were searching for an application like that.

You need to provide it the stock symbol you want it to monitor (refer to the yahoo website for that), for example, to monitor euro / yen, add "EURJPY=X"

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

Probably not a perfect ebuild but installs this convenient program

Thanks for this ebuild

However we dont provide plasmoids on the official tree

Instead you can try kde-testing overlay which has many plasmoids including this one.

If you know how to use layman , you should not have a problem ( layman -a kde-testing )

Thank you for your answer, I didn't knew this overlay.
I think that those packages should be present on the main tree, it would be more convenient for most of the users.
