... and more feel free to investigate by yourself :)
Recommendations:
Place the dll file in the experts\libraries directory
Place the mq4 file in the experts\script directory
Unfortunatly MT4 does not have a function to identify by code so I must use two kind of lines name the names beginning with an "_ " underscore and the normal name this workaround permits the code to work on some objects or not (key S) selected objects are without the _ prefix
REMEMBER TO EXIT THE SCRIPT WITH THE X KEY WHEN THE WORK IS DONE!
