-- qtcmd v0.1
-- (c) 2016 Valentin Schmidt
"qtcmd" is a Qt-based command-line tool that allows to create interactive
dialogs from shell scripts, and return the result as exitCode and/or stdout
string.
It's inspired by Zenity (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zenity), but uses Qt
4.8.6 instead of GTK+.
It's currently win-only - i.e. meant for Windows batch scripts - but could
easily be ported to macOS or Linux, just let me know if there is any interest.
It comes in 2 flavors, a small (77 Kb) version that implements all basic dialog
types, and an extended version (573 Kb) that in addition also allows to create
dialogs of arbitrary complexity, loaded from a UI file created by Qt Designer.
This version e.g. also allows to create Wizard-based installation dialogs etc.
For details on usage, check out the enclosed Windows batch files.
