Rik,
I am going to recap here the remedies discussed relating to your
problem with ABTool... but in my own words. See if this makes a little
more sense.
The instant you place ABTool in the Plugin subdirectory, it is going
to (for lack of a better word) 'hijack' the normal operation of
Amibroker during Startup. The way it does this is by forcing the
immediate execution of an ABTool script called 'Autoexec.xss' which
goes thru several execution steps which are causing your
consternation. One of the (several) execution steps spawned by
'Autoexec.xss' is 'Autoexec.afl' which seems to be causing you the
most aggrevation.
Here is what I suggest (and UM is welcome to jump on my case if he
wants). Find the 'Autoexec.xss' text file and edit it as follows:
... Unlike an Amibroker AFL scripts which use a comment char sequence
of '//' or '/*', ABTool *.xss commands are commented out by preceeding
the commands with the # sumbol.
... Examine 'Autoexec.xss' closely and be aware that any lines that
are not preceeded with the '#' symbol are going to be executed upon
Amibroker STARTUP.
... I suggest that you comment out each uncommented line by adding a
leading '#' character. Then your Amibroker Stratup will be normal.
... Then take the time to learn and understand the purpose of the
default ABTool Startup sequence so that you can take advantage of it
in the future.
While I don't take execption with the way ABTool is delivered with the
default execution of Autoexec.afl (via Autoexec.xss), it does force
you to become a 'quick learner'.
Regards,
Phsst
