How do you compile and/or add .h files to macros, i use VC6, got the whole macro cut/paste thing down, but i dunno where .h files go, or how to make them

Here's a little tutorial on what header files do for you. It's informative...

Plugin != Macro

Macros do not require .h files, actually macros dont require shit. They are a stand alone script. Macros are writen in MQ2 native language.

Plugins require .h and sometimes other files for compiling. Think of these as hard coded macros. Plugins are writen in C++ and must be compiled into a pluginname.DLL file.

It does things you tell it to.. whee whee whee

A plugin.... plugins in to MQ and adds functionality..... Completey different fucking ballbpark
