Stock Quotes

getstockquote - Free

getstockquote is an embeddable Perl script that fetches stock or mutual fund data from a variety of sources. It's "embeddable" because it was designed to be run from within another HTML framework such as via server-side execs, regular CGI scripts, or PHP (although I've used it on the command line as well).
