[Qgis-user] Add a wms layer from startu macro

[Andrea Peri]

THX Giovanni forma tour precious help.
I cannot use a file in .qgis2 folder. Because this mean to have a  setup
phase before to open the project. But i hope to apply the code directly
inside the qgis project. Your code is really interesting.
Many thx,
Andrea
