ANN: Finance.Quote.Yahoo-0.2

i have released Finance.Quote.Yahoo 0.2 i have broken the 0.1 api, be careful if you use it i have added support for historical quotes which some people requested http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/Finance-Quote-Yah... i received useful input from dale jordan and aaron tomb on this list in particular

I installed this and ran the sample program at
http://www.b7j0c.org/content/haddock/finance-quote-yahoo/Finance-Quote-Yahoo...
This timed out. I suspect, because I am behind a corporate proxy server.
$ env | grep -i http
http_proxy=http://myproxy.com:3128
https_proxy=http://myproxy.com:3128
This works to get unix utilities like w3m and lynx working, but I guess
not the haskell machinery.
Before I try to fix this myself, can anyone point me to a solution? (and
also confirm that the above code works when not firewalled :) )
Before I go around changing the library source code, or make a copy
thereof and put in my working directory, is there a more elegant way to
approach this?

i am sorry you are having difficulty thomas i use the HTTP module as the basis for making webservice requests i am not sure how proxying is handled by that package i believe some people maintaining the HTTP package read this list many operating systems allow users to stipulate a proxy through an environment variable as you note please let me know if my code breaks for some other reason, i will work hard to fix any legitimate bugs immediately
