TQt - the brains behind Trinity, using Qt3 and (soon) Qt4 to render

If any app wanted to, they could start using TQt and then not worry
about Qt3 -> Qt4 -> Qt5 changes.
Interresting. How do one start TQt?
You don't need to start it. The application will automatically call
TQt to render its interface. It's been doing that for most 3.5.12
applications...
You have to run a separate script to launch
Trinity apps? I have never had
to.
Well, at the moment I run Ubuntu Maverick Meerkat with Trinity
installed _but_ a Gnome/AWN Desktop (actually I recently moved to
Ubuntu because Mepis was going KDE 4, and I at first did not trust
"K"ubuntu, then for the moment stayed there) I do have a test install
of Debian lenny + Trinity, but Debian tends to be a little old in
stable.
So, if I try to start a KDE3 (sorry, Trinity :) app I get "the program
is not installed". Following some info I start my apps with scripts
like:
#!/bin/bash
PATH=/opt/kde3/bin:/opt/kde3/games:/opt/kde3/bin:$PATH
KDEDIRS=/usr/:/opt/kde3/ KDEHOME=$HOME/.kde3
XDG_DATA_DIRS=/opt/kde3/share/:/usr/share/ MANPATH=/opt/kde3/share/man
kalzium
I imagine I should be able to setup these paths somewhere, but did not
have time to look where until now.
Try throwing all these paths into your ~/.bashrc for now. I know that
the variables are supposed to be set, so I'd have to look into it
more.
As I like Mepis better than Ubuntu, I do hope that Trinity will
developp to a stage where Warren decides to use it (as he wisely did
not take up KDE 4 for a long time).
More support is always nice :)
