Hello,
There are lots of well-organized and well-written
wikis out there. The largest is probably Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org
It uses exactly the same engine as the one I have
set up on amibroker.org server
And yes - you have to 'register' in order to
edit, but registration involves just creating a name and password (2 second work
:-))
Best regards,
Tomasz

FAQ / SNIPPETS idea
Before any of us give up and slink back into our holes -
we need to think about organization. If anyone has a link to a well
organized wiki thingi then it would be great to see how its done. Then
we need to discuss how to organize it. Once that's done then we
can set up a "structure" and start filling it in.
TJ - if you're reading this - is it "public" or do you
have to register to post? I already registered but don't know if that
was necessary. Do you have any wiki sities that you can point us
to?
d
OK, OK - it didn't turn out quite the way it looks in my
InfoSelect. It's much
easier to follow in IS. So I've deleted it from the
Wiki page. But it was well-intentioned - it's a thread from this very forum
on how to set up
databases for multiple markets in Ami, which is
something that many find tricky
and confusing. Tomasz gave an excellent
explanation in the last post of the
thread. The first couple of posts
were for context, as Tomasz's post answers
points raised in the previous
ones.
So if somebody can tell me and everyone else how to use the
Wiki thingy so that
it looks like a polished page, and preferably
indexed, then perhaps the thread
would be worth re-posting there. I tried
to make sense of the Wiki Manual, but
a lot of it was gobbledegook to a
non-programmer like me, and it would have to
be one of the most
user-UNfriendly 'manuals' I have ever encountered. I could
not make sense
out of it at all.
I have no idea about writing web pages or using
HTML - I hope that's not required to use the Wiki thing - but I get the
impression from the manual that it may be. In which case, I suspect
many of us in here would be left behind... Ah well, I still have my
InfoSelect database :)

interested and while no expert I have a collection of snippets that I've
filed on my Infoselect database over the past 2 years and would be happy to
clip and paste those in with some editing/categorizing, for example as
Graham just wrote "how to plot arrows" or how to draw a signal "ribbon" etc.
some very simple stuff keeps getting asked. I forget how to compose
them and have to clip, paste and modify.

There are others on this board who use Infoselect and other databases to do
exactly that, to keep a store of AFL snippets that can be searched down to
the letter. Most of these snippets are not my original thought and
borrowed from the board. Somehow searching Purebytes is not nearly as
productive as creating your own store.

(good old Graham for instance) will answer that question that's been asked
