Hello,
 
I have set-up Wiki page at:
 
as a tool for this collaborative documentation project.
 
For those of you who do not know what is Wiki, here is a page from Wikipedia (Wiki-based free Encyclopedia):

Best regards,

That would be nice if we can get this off the ground.
 
As to publishing others work:  If it was posted on a forum then I think it would be ok (if anyone disagrees now's the time to speak up). I DO think we should post the date and author just the be courteous.

ALL:
I'm interested and while no expert I have a collection of snippets that I've filed on my Infoselect database over the past 2 years and would be happy to clip and paste those in with some editing/categorizing, for example as Graham just wrote "how to plot arrows" or how to draw a signal "ribbon" etc. some very simple stuff keeps getting asked.  I forget how to compose them and have to clip, paste and modify.
 
FWIW
There are others on this board who use Infoselect and other databases to do exactly that, to keep a store of AFL snippets that can be searched down to the letter.  Most of these snippets are not my original thought and borrowed from the board.  Somehow searching Purebytes is not nearly as productive as creating your own store. 
 
Then there are others who've moved on but who left quite a legacy of tight algorithms and indicators.
 
I can contribute a low level of jScript automation -  the running nightly jobs as I call them - to create composties,  I'd be interested in moving to the next level in jScripts as well as some realtime monitoring/alerts/indicators.
 
Be glad to be a contributor of what I have. I'm sensitive about publishing others' work and some of the best would be coming from others.
 
JOE

No there isn't - except for the stuff I've done for the PBI Collected Documentation at http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/amibroker-beta/files/
 
There have been several attempts to do such a thing but the interest level is 0 to build it - but very high to have access to one. But then there are those that are too lazy to read anything and therefore will just post a question anyway and someone far more patient than most of us (good old Graham for instance) will answer that question that's been asked and answered 100's of times.
 
TJ offered to set up a WikiWiki for the OLE group several months ago (no other folks were interested so it died). Maybe he or you could set one up.  If so that would allow a "community" effort (Looks like maybe you and me at this point).
 
I'll help but due to the lack of response of a couple of other attempts I won't lead it.

Is there an FAQ document maintained for this group?  It seems to me it
would be *very* useful for this particular group.

Perhaps a "SNIPPETS" style FAQ where snippets of code are kept with
common "How do I...?" questions in one large (indexed) document.  Such
as the question above...

I would certainly take a look at this file before asking my stupid
questions :-) It may help cut back on some common questions and help
educate new users faster.  It could even be put into the help files of
AmiBroker for each major release.

The online AFL Library and purebytes.com archives don't really suit this
purpose I am finding.

Any volunteers? ;)

Dan.

p.s., in case you don't know - SNIPPETS was a project whose goal was to
"collect and disseminate the best C/C++ answers to 'How do I...?'
programming questions" (started in the old FidoNet BBS days if I
remember correctly - gee I must be getting old...)
