Symbols for Lua scripts

Up to 10 symbols for Lua scripts (see Lua Scripting Language) can be displayed on the toolbar ("Lua script slot 1 .10"). These scripts will be run directly when clicking the respective symbol (i.e. without requiring to load the script first via Extras menu).

Furthermore, the INI file needs to be edited (see Installing CadnaA, INI-files in the manual „Introduction to CadnaA“). Insert a section „[Lua]“ and enter the filename of each Lua script including its file path, for example:

[Lua]
File1=D:\LUA_Projects\LUA_1.lua
File2=D:\LUA_Projects\LUA_2.lua
...
