Hi all,
This isn't directed at Martin personally (so please don't take offense ), I'm just quoting him as an example....
It's ok if somebody doesn't know how to code, and needs help creating an indicator or EA or whatever. But, even people that haven't coded should easily be able to make slight modifications to code. (Just take a few days to read Code Guru's great mq4 tutorial.)
What Code Guru made here is pretty cool, but if everybody asked him to make a customized "Please make it say this" alert, he could spend the whole year doing nothing else and still not be finished.
Non-coders, Code Guru spent his valuable time making this for us. Please, take a few hours (or maybe only minutes) to learn how to make it say whatever you want. Read his tutorial. Look at the code. You'll see that's its really easy. I'm not suggesting that you all need to learn to be programmers, but it would be nice if you all learned to be "simple code modifiers".
Just my 2 pips,
Keris
BTW, Code Guru, this is great. I really learn a lot looking at your code.

Keris,
You are right!
When I receive a message asking me for coding help I feel happy because I like to help but I feel sad too.
I feel sad because I've written my tutorial to give you the first step to MQL4 programming and I was thinking the tutorial will reduce the huge quantity of asking-help messages.
Folks,
You have to learn MQL4! Yes you have to learn it even you find someone kind enough to code your EAs.
Simply, you have to know what he did and how to modify the code to your need!
Can anyone please post the package here ... i can not find the package at the linked site. I suspect that it might be because I am not logged in on that site. I have registered, but they have not sent me an email with my password.
By the way, I thought the tutorial was excellent. I read it all in about 2 hours and have been busy writing my first custom indicator.
thanks

TheImperialOne,
You're welcome!
This is the package, however, you have to be a user in www.metatrader.info to get the all the new tools and their updates.
The package contains 4 files and you have to put each of them in the proper folder:
Pop.exe and Popup.dll
You have to copy them to C: drive. Pop.mqh
Copy this file to /experts/include folder. Pop_Demo.mq4
This is a script to demonstrate how to use the program. Copy it to /experts/script folder.
Note: If you want to copy Pop.exe and Popup.dllto another folder and not the C: root you have to change the directory in the code of calling the Pop function.
How to use the program:
The script Pop_Demo.mq4 is an example of using the program.
To call the alert you use this line:
pop ( string msg , string installed_dir)
For example: if you installed Pop.exe and Popup.dll to C: drive and want to pop the text “Hi world!” you can use this line of code in your mql4 program: pop (“Hi world!”, "c:");
