Using Autoit, https://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit/, to create a charting program was more than I expected to be able to do. Autoit its a scripting language for windows however looks like its capable of much more than scripting as the program I created, even if I`m quite a newbie with it, its capable of doing whatever other real charting programs do and, even if, for the moment its a bit slower than let`s say Amibroker, I`m quite sure that a program made in Autoit would be perfectly capable to compete with any program without any difference.
What SimpleCharts will provide (hopefully), if will ever be ready, will be more than any other existing charting program is able to do. Why you would ask? Well its because of Autoit. Using it to create the program leaves open a door to use Autoit as a scripting program alongside SimpleCharts. What does that mean? You will be able to create in SimpleCharts more than you will be able to create in, I believe, any other charting program and use SimpleCharts in ways you can not other charting programs. Of course there`s a long way until then
AutoIt is a freeware BASIC-like scripting language designed for automating the Windows GUI and general purpose scripting.
