Hello, I need (free or cheap) source for end of day stock/mutual funds/index values. Major world indexes & European stocks are primary intrest. I keep seeing that yahoo/ google/ MS offer this data, yet I cant find HOWTO doc (or similar) on getting the data.

Reuters is an option - ~$300/month puts it out of my range.

Sample of what I am looking for:
WMX.IDX,20100326,54.49,54.6,54.17,54.41,0
XAH.IDX,20100326,52.39,52.77,52.33,52.54,0
XAL.IDX,20100326,37.34,38.4,37.34,37.59,0
XAO.IDX,20100326,4896.2998,4905.2002,4848.2998,4905.2002,0

I wish to get this data into txt file in an automated manner.

My platform is Linux, (I also have pc with windows & emulator in for win in linux so windows is an option)

http://www.eoddata.com/ is best site I have found so far. This is quite good yet I desire more info on european finances.

Please advice!
Sincerely, Janne
