Is there a simple editing program (C#) out there to edit a "*.CS" file without having to import into NT7 and then use Ninja Script?

A .cs file is simply a program file for C#. There are two editors that you can use. Both can be downloaded free of charge.


(1) You can download Microsoft Visual C# 2010 Express Edition here

Microsoft Express Downloads - Visual Studio Express and SQL Server Express


(2) or you can download SharpDevelop 4.0 at this link

Downloads @ic#code


I prefer SharpDevelop 4.0, as Microsoft's Visual Express Edition is a bit cumbersome, even if it is more powerful than SharpDevelop.

But if you look just for a fast and simple way to edit your files, SharpDevelop is the better choice.

Thanks fat Tails,

For a non-programmer like me they all look and feel the same. What am I supposed to look for as far as simplicity and ease of use is concerned? Now I am confused. I downloaded the Visual C# Express that installed a big package of stuff on my computer. All these software seem to come as a package and overwhelming. Can't they at NT separate their Ninja Script editor from the main NT program similar to MT4. I guess I need to buy a copy of the C# for Dummies.

If you read my post above again, I suggested not to use Visual C# Express Edtition, as it is cumbersome. Thanks for confirming this.

The two other ones are rather simple to install. For the .Net Framwork 3.5 which is used by NinjaTrader 7.0, you will best install the SharpDevelop version 3.2.

Thanks again Fat Tails, I did actually read your note and downloaded SharpDevelop and uninstalled Visual Express which I had downloaded sometimes ago but had forgotten about it. Believe me FT, I am no fun of MS products, unfortunately we can't live without some of them, like their operating system.

From what I have observed on this board.... most folks use ....

"Hey, Fattails... can you do this for me free ... "

which is part of a suite that includes

"... oh, and can you add arrows... "

"...oh, and can you change the colors..."

"... oh, and can you add an audible alarm of my cat meowing..."
