Re: First Principles For A New User

Re: First Principles For A New User

o-charts is only using the ENCs for Greece. To repeat: we do not edit charts.

Re: First Principles For A New User

Re: First Principles For A New User

The "Chartdownloader Plug-in" and the corresponding tab at Options|Charts has indeed nothing to do with the o-charts sets.
