Updating Exchange rate and Stock price

[Thierry Lelièvre]

Thanks,

I'm going to try the --add-price-quotes options :-9

Concerning the update of the exchange rate, I would like to know, when I
travel abroad and pay for a service in CAD (ex : car rent), how much I
will be charged on my account in EUROS.

I wonder if there is way to get the current exchange rate between
currencies from a financial news website for instance.
