If you want tabbed Studio for kdb+ windows, use

Seems to work ok. Open more windows in Studio for kdb+ from the menu Windows->New Window, and add that window to the wintabber application.

Getting the latest version

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008

Some users are complaining that when they download the latest version of studio they are getting the previous version. This is due to their browsers or proxies caching the previously downloaded file. Until I know of a better way to get around this, users can append some random params to the url which will force a bypass of their cache. e.g.

Studio for kdb+ V3.01 Open Beta

Monday, March 10th, 2008

There’s a new version of

Studio for kdb+

available for beta testing from

http://skelton.fileburst.com/downloads/phoenix.exe

This is open to anyone who would like to participate. The beta version
does not expire or require additional license files.

It is an extension to the v1.88 (the last public) codebase, which has
proven the most popular of recent builds due to its simple interface.

I will continue to improve some superficial features (syntax highlighting)
in the coming days.

If you find any bugs, or missing essential features, please send me an
email.

Codename Phoenix

Monday, March 3rd, 2008

Due to popular demand, I’m taking the progress made since the last Studio for kdb+ release (Feb 06, v1.88) and backporting it into that code-base. This version is codenamed Phoenix, and due to interim internal builds taking up the 2.x, is going out at 3.x.
