http://doc.trolltech.com/4.4/moc.html seems to be "Meta object compiler", a Qt thing. The ebuild x11-libs/qt seems to provide "/usr/bin/moc", haven't found automoc (as an executable at least). > I have a book on autotools, but have only used them, not configured > them.

See above, http://doc.trolltech.com has tons of (professionally written and maintained) documentation on Qt and everything around it. > I'm not looking for answers (my questions may not yet be well-enough > formulated for that), but pointers to resources.

Hope this helps. Good Luck, Patric. -- [email protected] mailing list
