Thu, 18 Sep 2008 17:49:12 -0700

QTable alternating colors

Mon, 03 Oct 2005 18:19:24 -0700

Most modern table widgets are displayed with alternating colors to help visually distinguish between rows.

kccmp - v0.2

Sun, 02 Oct 2005 20:26:21 -0700

I just uploaded a new version of kccmp. It supports building against Qt 3.x or Qt 4.x. Qt 4.x build also requires libboost_regex.
The default build is configured to be Qt 3.x.

Problem linking lfhex if only libqt_mt.so exist (e.g. no libqt.so)
