Oh, and I tested Update Finance Quote on High Sierra. It works fine but it’s a bit non-obvious: It opens Terminal behind other windows and waits for you to enter your password there. If you’ve run it you should find a Terminal instance in your dock that you can click to bring it up. From there it should proceed the same as the terminal instructions above. Note that it expects to be in the same directory as a Gnucash instance and that you’re logged in to an administrator account--the latter is also the case for the command line instructions above.
