I was suggesting that there be an *option* to save studies as ASCII. I
believe that would add greatly to the convenience for users. I was not
suggesting that everything *must* be in ASCII.

I'm not sure I understand what this has to do with TS studies being in
ASCII.

It would be *very* easy for developers to make proprietary studies as
DLL's. Some already do that. These DLL's could be protected by the same
techniques used widely in the industry. No risk for developers (in fact,
the commercial techniques offer *more* protection than does Omega).
And one could use them with ASCII code, if desired. Would work well, no?
