Title: Re: [amibroker] Re: Double braces

Sid,


I find it very convenient to, when installing a new release or beta, to place a copy of the readmes and ReleaseNotes.html on my desktop. That way I don't have to look for it in the AmiBroker folder on my computer. I do the same with the IBc readme and some other often referenced docs.


Best regards,

herman
