[Kmymoney] Prices for South African Unit Trusts

Hi

KMyMoney Version 4.7.90 using KDE Development Platform 4.14.2 on Mint
17.1 Rebecca.

I have recently had to re-install Finance::Quote and note that version
1.35 has a module ZA_UnitTrusts.pm. Up to now I have not been able to
get prices for South African unit trusts since ZA.pm with Sharenet only
returned share prices.

I would like to be able to add  SA Unit Trusts to the online sources
list to enable users to get prices for these units?

One other point is that the ZA_UnitTrusts.pm module does not accept
stock or trading symbols since one cannot index directly to the web page
with them. This requires initial PT to get the web page ID and then use
that instead of the trading symbol. 

Is there any way that one could still use the universal trading symbol
and have that mapped to the user input web page ID?

Regards
Timothy
