Tools - Shell script!

Hi folks,

Scenario 1:

The EURUSD went up, I want to tell the boss. What if the MetaTrader can open my email client!

Scenario 1:

The EURUSD went down. Could MetaTrader open the notepad to write a piece of note.

If you are a lazy person like me, or you have more useful  ideas (scenarios) about running applications from MetaTrader!

Running a program from MetaTrader is not a hard thing anymore.

Just you this library.
