Re: [amibroker] some improvements

P I recon you may have it the nail on the head
A more complete manual as you described with lots of examples
would mostlike reduce TJ's time spent answering basic how do I type
questions.

As for updates I think many of them are beta and the group is used by TJ to
test em before the final release :)

Anyway Tj has stated that new doc's are his current project and as always
he seems to come up with what many users want.
