[amibroker] Re: Drag-Drop folder

Okay, Insert Linked seems to make the difference. Any chance of 
having an option to make this the default? I hate it when I don't 
have control over how things get named and what goes where! This 
would also allow me to double click on charts rather than dropping 
the menu to Insert Linked.

Re: "FYI: when you use FORMULA EDITOR, the file is ALWAYS saved in 
the original location !!!"

Even when I use Insert rather than Insert Linked??? I don't think it 
works this way for me or else my disk wouldn't be filling up with 
extra versions. I was strictly using the Formula Editor until I got 
frustrated by the above.

What if I drag a formula from the chart tree to the Auto Analysis 
window (and then edit it)? Is that the equivalent of Insert or Insert 
Linked?

I know you've been frustrated with people using external editors for 
a long time. Personally, I've finally come around to using the 
Formula Editor "most" of the time because of it's obvious advantages 
(e.g., integration with the rest of the system). Now if it just had 
parenthesis matching and multiple file tabbed editing, there probably 
wouldn't be any reason for me to go back to my perverse external 
editing ways.
