Is there a formal definition to when code becomes an add-on and when it becomes a plugin ??? Is there a need for two defintions? Does any one care? :mrgnr: wabbit :D P.S. Or is that add-in and plug-on ?? :lol:

Right-on, Wabbit. :) My guess is that a plug-in utilizes a MetaStock DLL, whereas an add-on would just use plain vanilla MS code. I use the word "kit" to cover an integrated collection of indicators, chart experts, templates, explorations and DLLs, such as in the MACDH Divergence kit and URSC kit. jose '-)

Actually, the difference is if the product is supported by Equis or the developer.

Joe wins the fluffy bunny! A plug-in is developed by and supported by Equis. An add-on is developed by and supported by a third party... though... we are making an effort to move away from that confusion in marketing. We will mostly likely just be referring to plug-ins in the future. :) M
