qStudio is an IDE for kdb+ database by kx systems that allows querying kdb+ servers, charting results and browsing server objects from within the GUI.
Version 1.29 of qStudio is now available:
http://www.timestored.com/qstudio/
Changes in the latest version include a new dark theme for charts and the ability to run multiple instances of qStudio.
The changes were added as a few people had asked for a dark theme due to eye strain from staring at the white charts.
If you have any ideas for what you would like to see in the next version please let me know.

For step-by-step instructions see the qStudio loader help.
qUnit allows writing unit tests for q code in a format that will be familiar to all those who have used junit,cunit or a similar xunit based test framework. Tests depend on assertions and the results of a test run are shown as a table like so:
Tests are specified as functions that begin with the test** prefix and can have time or memory limits specified.
