I travel a bit and this is really going to come in handy.

I noticed that it doesn't honor the proxy server setup in the connection manager, nor does it take the http_proxy environment variable if started from the command line.

I'd request a future feature to support proxy connections.

For me updating still doesn't work. Tried to run in xterm "gcur -u", and then it changes the data in status bar from 1970 to our days;), but actual currencies don't seem to be refreshed - US$/Russian Roubles are still 1:23.00, when even on Yahoo! Finance site itself it's 1:23.88.
And "Save as default" also doesn't function.

Was this project adopted? Wondering if it will continue to be developed. This wouldd indeed be a wondeerful app to have along on a RTW triip.

I started on a simple python implementation yesterday which is doing everything I want at the moment. I'll release it soon and people can feature request if it doesn't fit their needs.

Beginnings of the application - http://linuxuk.org/node/39

I'll add it garage.maemo.org when I've packaged it up in the next couple of days.

Looking forward to trying it out :)

since we won't have much info on the screen, it would be very handy to use large toolbars.
