Overview

· Editor
- This is where you enter queries and commands. For example, to create or retrieve data. You can get help at any time by entering:help and pressing enter (or clicking the "Run" arrow to the right of the Editor).
· Stream
- This is where the results of your queries appear. Each result has its own frame. Each frame appears above the previous. So this enables you to scroll down and view the results of a previous query if needed. You can clear the Stream at any time by using the command :clear.
