Jay, in a previous post you mentioned:

"The best way to get EOD data currently, would be to wait till the market closes, then run through a list of your symbols and pull a snap quote. This will give you the current open,high,low,last,volume. This would be much more efficient than pulling minute, tick or even daily data in many cases. The daily data sometimes isn't available until after 7m CST due to exchange adjustments to the data."

I've tried looking in the documentation and example but could not find anything that explains pulling up a snap quote. Can you please explain?

The only thing I can see is to recycle the symbol count limit (500 or 1300) for non satellite subscriptions by sending request-pairs of "w<A...>\n" and "r<symbol-A...>" for each symbol up to the limit?
