You can't create directories for the indicators, but you can "organize"
them by using special characters, such as % $ . _
All the special characters are "alphabetically" before the letter "a".
Therefore if you name a study
".ZigZag" it will appear immediately before the built-in "Accum Distrib"
in the indicator list. "_Zigzag" will appear immediately after ".Zigzag"
but still before "AccumDist". You can also use combinations, viz.:
"_.Zigzag". I use these special characters to "group" different types
of indicators. Also, all my own indicators appear in the list before
any of the builtin ones. This makes it easy to backup all non-builtin
indicators. It also prevents overwriting builtin indicators that you
have changed (if you also change the name as I've described.)
You can do the same with systems and functions, although I've found that
the special characters that can be used in a function name are limited.
