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.

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.
