Hi Dennis

You should be able to use the example hdb and rdb in the wiki tutorial
http://code.kx.com/wiki/Startingkdbplus/contents.

Attached are the latest versions, as both linux and windows zips. These
should be unzipped into a subfolder ws of your q installation, i.e. ~/q/ws,
otherwise just change the scripts as required.

After loading q, then

\l ws/buildtaq.q

will build an hdb for 20 days. You can change the parameters in the script
header for a longer run (4 years works fine), or to create a segmented
database.

The scripts in the tick subdirectory run a tickerplant and several rdb
processes. They should work as is, but I set things up so that all
processes run in a single window so as to not clutter the screen, i.e. on
linux using tmux, and on windows using console2.

Regards

Chris

P.S. gmail complained that windows.zip contained an executable file, so it
has been renamed to windows.jpg. Just rename it back.
