'''TclStock''' is yet another one of those stock ticker applets by [Jason Tang].  It reused much of the TclWeather codebase, hence the similarities in both design and appearance.  It retrieves its stock quotes from NewsAlert[http://www.newsalert.com].  It doesn't have the fancy features needed to maintain a complete portfolio; it is intended to be a lightweight companion to TclWeather.  The program was originally inspired by Tom Poindexter's TclTicker, but was quickly branched off to utilize the ticker widget I wrote for TclWeather.  Here are some screenshots.

   * Here is a picture of the main tclstock, as taken from WinNT 4.0.  It wasn't such a great day on Wall Street when I took this picture:

   * This image shows the first configuration tab where one may change, among other things, the font and scroll speeds:

   * Colors are customizable on the second tab.  Left-clicking a stock name will pop up a window showing additional details about that company.  TclStock is meant to be OS independent, hence the ability for the user to choose his browser.

   * ''(Not shown)'' TclStock is also aware of proxy servers.
