[ts-gen] create & modify orders

[Paul C]

Having experimented with the shim for a few days I'm getting
interested in the Order commands and associated sql tables.

I get the impression that the commands for creating orders are
evolving (?). In the most recent 'bin/includes' are commands of the
form:

		create item  12 3 LMT 2 50.0  0.0;

where previously the "12"    ^^  was not present.  My understanding is
that this is a limit order to buy 2 lots of AIG at price 50.0; and
that it's AIG because it references row "3" in the "Template" table,
which in turn (pid=2) references row 2 in the "Position" table: this
ultimately deriving its entries from risk.sql.  But I'm not sure about the "12".
I see that AIG has a cid of 12 in the table; but is this the same 12
as in the above command? (i.e a reference to AIG in the shims'
database).


The shim looks to be a powerful way to interact with the TWS, and I got
it up and running without much problem (debian).  It would be
interesting to know what's currently under development in the code
(i.e. I'm curious about your roadmap).
