My question to both Les and Robert is *which* environment file have you 
updated? ~/.bash_profile, or 
/Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/etc/gnucash/environment? 

F::Q will not work in the Mac bundle with Alphavantage if you modify 
..bash_profile (but will work at the command line), and vice versa.

Les, also, from what folder are you trying to run gnc-fq-dump? You need to be 
inside the Gnucash bundle for it to work.
