Aha, so SPIDER is not available in the beta version !
Is it still the plan to have a SPIDER at all I wonder ?

I suspect the authors have bitten off more than they can chew or more
than anyone can expect them to chew. Coding up a complete replacement 
for NOS *and* a decent user-interface *and* a World-wide Web Browser
is an immense task, (the sort of thing a software house would have
teams of people working on), if a commercial version ever meets the
light of day then it will be worth a darn sight more than 30 quid.
