Tomasz:
I do not think you have to apologize for anything. The users here
congratulate you on the one hand and marvel that you can code such
wonderful and many improvements while at the same time keeping up an
unprecedented level of support, and some then complain that the users
guide is not kept up to date. Your explanation sounds like a great
system to maximize your efficiency and keep the changes/improvements
coming. Don't change a thing from my point of view.

Hello,
I fully agree. I didn't say that I won't update docs.
I just said that it was mentioned in release notes.
I will update the docs to reflect 'variable period' ability
as I wrote in some other post.
Let me explain how "release notes" and 'user guide' are produced:
release notes are in fact copy of my internal Change Log
plain text file. I have my plain text change log open
all the time when I develop AmiBroker.
And everytime I add/change something I take a note
in a Change Log. When I prepare beta release
I copy entries from Change Log to the "read me" file
that accompanies the beta.
Now when 'official' version is released I
append all changes made between previous release and
current release and this forms "release notes" document
that is available from Start->Programs->AmiBroker->Release Notes.
Now the user guide: it is updated only with offical versions.
It contains a part called "What's new" and this is basically
summary of "release notes". Summary means that some
less important stuff is not mentioned.
Therefore it sometimes may happen that the information
about given feature/change is available only in Release Notes
document because it is based directly on Change Log that
is 'low-level' document that describes
each and every change made.
That's how it happened that information about variable periods
is available only in release notes. Somehow I made this ommission,
my appologies.
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
