Hi Pierre,
It isn't hard to read and write the old Metastock data format. I do it
using Delphi but it would be a similar task to do it in C++. I've had a go
at the new format but it needs a bit more effort than I've had time for.
What we need is a public library of functions independent of Metastock so
that you can do your system development in your own way and just use
Metastock as a file viewer.
