I have easily enough familiarity with Python for this task, but the last 
time I programmed anything Lisp-like was when I tried to fix emacs K&R C 
editing mode in eLisp in about 1982, a task I eventually abandoned and 
returned to using vi, because I was spending far more time coding the 
eLisp than the C I wanted to code. The last time I used Lisp before that 
would have been in about 1976.

Looks like I may have to go and have a look at the page about building 
Gnucash for OS X and compare it to the cost of learning enough Scheme to 
do the job. It's a pity that all the examples I've been pointed to for 
importing stock quote data have been in Python, not Scheme.
