[amibroker] Re: Update from CSI regarding calls to their API

CSI 
won't be doing anything about naming de-listed stocks.   If Paul does 
the DLL for us, the watchlists will need to contain the CSI number, probably in 
the format that he is already using.   The CSI number gets passed to 
the DLL and the data is returned.    I will get CSI to make a 
special call for those users who don't want to be bothered with 
de-listed stocks (and therefore, CSI numbers) that will take a symbol as input 
instead of CSI number.   This alternative call will only work with 
active stocks.

As to 
my program that will convert from CSI to ASCII, I will change it to use the new 
interface.   This will make my program twice as fast.   I 
will give users the ability to prefix (or suffix) de-listed stocks with anything 
they like.
