My understanding is that if you run: install 'qtide' from within J, that should download (and install) the latest binaries.
I think I'm right in saying that once you've downloaded and installed the J801 beta from: http://www.jsoftware.com/download/j801/ you should be able to keep your beta install up-to-date by re-running the install command above. That will upgrade the base library, the ide/qt addon and download and install the latest jqt binaries. You can keep your other addons up-to-date by using either the console (jpkg works in all frontends) or jhs interface to the package manager: http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/JAL/Package%20Manager A big thanks to all the hard work that Bill and Chris are putting in on this. I think the end result is going to be really positive for those of us with an investment in the J6 window driver GUI. I've had a go at reworking a couple of GUI apps that I've built and found the process very painless and satisfying. I actually think building GUI interfaces will be easier than with J6 and will definitely provide a better cross-platform experience.
