Can I read live stock data for my software ?

#1
Hi,

Is it possible to download historical data for a particular stock preferably in a text file ?
For e.g in yahoo finance site, you can download the historical prices for a stock in a csv file format. The same can also be downloaded automatically by writing a small program.

Just wondering if there is any other site like yahoo which does something similar.

Another related question can I directly retrieve stock information from NSE by using or by creating my own software ? Is it free or paid ?

Any pointers will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Alok
