Just place the yMarketQuote program wherever you'd like on your hard drive
along with the 'data' folder and contents.  Program will not start without
BetterString and NListview .mcc's installed...

USAGE
-----

See Help menus in the program for a list of Stock Exchanges and Yahoo Tags
Also, look at the 'hot help' bubbles to get an idea of program usage...

Tested on MorphOS 3.4 and 3.5, AmigaOS 3.9

RECOMPILING
-----------

Dependencies: libcurl 7.xx.x+

MorphOS Compile: gcc -o yMarketQuote ymarketquote.c -lcurl -s -Wall

AmigaOS Compile: gcc -o yMarketQuote ymarketquote.c -lcurl -lssl -lcrypto -ldl -lz -s Wall

MorphOS version was built with libcurl 7.34.0 (without ssl and many others)
Take a look at 'libcurl-build-options.txt' to get an idea of what not to
include to get the program size down from 4.3MBs to only about 300k...

AmigaOS version was built with libcurl 7.14.0, hence the extra dependencies and file size...
