Can I compile ex4 files in a script?

Hi Folks:


Is it possible to compile ex4 files without going into the MetaEditor GUI?


I typically use a different editor (emacs) for ex4 code development but I can't compile it without running the MetaEditor GUI. This is a lot of overhead for a simple compile step so I was wondering whether there was another way to do it. If it is possible (either through MetaEditor or some other tool), I will integrate that into my emacs environment.


Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks,


Joe

 

I figured this out: just run MetaLang <ea>.mq4. It is quite simple but I couldn't find any documentation that described the command line.
