Stocks is a screen widget that exhibits alterations in stocks.
Stocks is a valuable screenlet for those interested in tracking stock changes. The screenlet is a part of Screenlets, which is an engine that runs independently-developed widget applications. It functions primarily on X11-based compositing window managers, like the Compiz architecture for Linux.
Previously, screenlets were created using Python and SVG, but they now also support web widgets created with HTML, JavaScript, and CSS, similar to Apple Inc.'s Dashboard widgets. To operate Stocks, Screenlets must be installed.
The installation process is the same as always - simply extract the screenlet's archive to the "$HOME/.screenlets" directory. In this release, fault tolerance has been added to the Stocks screenlet. If it cannot retrieve data, an error message will be displayed, and the screenlet will retry retrieval every 30 seconds until it is successful.
Overall, Stocks is an essential addition for anyone interested in tracking stock changes, and it integrates smoothly with the Screenlets engine.
