[GNC] Thoughts on Online Quotes documentation

[orange at sbutler.co.uk]

   I built GNUcash a couple of years back on a Raspberry pi, got the
   quotes working IIRC (I had definitely installed Finance::Quote and even
   applied an update to a new version), started trying to learn how to use
   it but ended up not doing anything much with it all for various time
   related reasons.

   I've recently built the 5.4 version to have another try at adopting
   this but the quotes gives me an error.  From what I can gather, things
   have moved on since my last attempt and quotes via Yahoo are no longer
   available.  So, I'm looking for what I need to do to get this all
   working (primarily with UK listed stocks).

   I haven't found a simple guide to follow and, as per Jim's
   observations, the wiki just doesn't seem to cover the required
   information and still talks about Yahoo.  It isn't helping at all with
   my level of confusion!

   A revamp of the documentation in this area, with a simple guide to the
   current situation and what is required, would be greatly appreciated
   and would be a great help to adoption by newbies like myself.

   I would like to thank Jim for the suggestions and all those involved in
   making GNUcash available.

   All the best
   Simon
