Can't get online quotes for some Fidelity/BlackRock investments

[Andrew Kolbus]

Ken/John,
I think building this into the import module is the better approach here,
but it's not urgent.  My employer is switching 401k administrators in a few
months anyway. Not sure if things will be better or worse, but I'm okay
with manual updates in the meantime.

Thanks,
Andrew
Guys,
I know it might sound pretty kludgy, but is it maybe possible to do
something like this:

(1) Obtain the QIF data, saving to a file (or not) within Perl.
(2) Parse said data and extract the price.
(3) Construct the necessary data structure for a quote for Gnucash.
(4) Provide the data in the proper Finance::Quote style.

Kind of making a "fake" Finance::Quote module? I may have a go at
implementing this for some persnickety "available only on Fidelity website"
quotes I need. Then again, perhaps my ignorance of the intricacies of QIF
data is making me overly optimistic.

Ken
