Add Optional Pop-up alert to this EA?

Hello FF Programers:

There is an EA (that the great Ronald Raygun wrote) and am wondering if anyone can add code to it so that there is the option of a pop-up window and alert sound when a trade is taken?

The EA is fine, but it would be great to have an alert also.

Is anyone up to the task?

Don't have access to a coding terminal at the moment.

But the necessary bits of code are here:


PHP Code
//Add these at the top with all the other external functions
extern bool SignalsOnly = False;
extern bool Alerts = False;
extern bool SignalMail = False;
extern bool PlaySounds = False;


//Add these to the BUY section

if(SignalsOnly) {
         if (SignalMail) SendMail("[Signal Alert]", "[" + Symbol() + "] " + DoubleToStr(Ask, Digits) + "Buy Signal");
         if (Alerts) Alert("[" + Symbol() + "] " + DoubleToStr(Ask, Digits) + "Buy Signal");
         if (PlaySounds) PlaySound("alert.wav");
     
      }
      
      if(!IsTrade && !SignalsOnly) {


//and don't forget these
if (SignalMail) SendMail("[Signal Alert]", "[" + Symbol() + "] " + DoubleToStr(Ask, Digits) + "Buy Signal");
                   if (Alerts) Alert("[" + Symbol() + "] " + DoubleToStr(Ask, Digits) + "Buy Signal");
                if (PlaySounds) PlaySound("alert.wav");

//Add the following to the sell section
if(SignalsOnly) {
          if (SignalMail) SendMail("[Signal Alert]", "[" + Symbol() + "] " + DoubleToStr(Bid, Digits) + "Sell Signal");
          if (Alerts) Alert("[" + Symbol() + "] " + DoubleToStr(Bid, Digits) + "Sell Signal");
          if (PlaySounds) PlaySound("alert.wav");
         }
      if(!IsTrade && !SignalsOnly) {

//And don't forget these
if (SignalMail) SendMail("[Signal Alert]", "[" + Symbol() + "] " + DoubleToStr(Bid, Digits) + "Sell Signal");
                   if (Alerts) Alert("[" + Symbol() + "] " + DoubleToStr(Bid, Digits) + "Sell Signal");
                if (PlaySounds) PlaySound("alert.wav");
