That's OK with me. I really want to push to get us to 0.3.7 - just to
follow the open source ethos of 'release early, release often'.
Hopefully, a new release will encourage more people to get actively
involved in the KTechLab project. We've had loads of vocal support, but
what we really need is people who can turn their 'vocal' support into
real support by contributing to the code and adding useful information
to the project via the wiki.

I've not noticed that problem. The code was submitted by 'xvart' on the
tracker. The code simple displays the timings produced by the old scope
code, which seems to suggest a problem with the scope code rather that
'xvart's code.

I added an icon for the Bar Graph display to the SVN a couple of weeks
ago. Bear in mind that the the program refers to the graphics file in
the install path, not the working path of an svn build. Either do a
'make install'  after compilation, or copy the bar graph icon file
(bar_graph_display.png) to the installed version directory.
