Not. unlike Visual C++, Delphi was really visual programming. you can 
compare it to Visual Basic (the product which it was developed to

QText uses direct GDI calls for everything - it even draws its own 
fonts. that way you can have hebrew (and other languages- the last 
version I worked with supported over 30 languages) even on english only 
windows. I think that porting that would be easier, as the number of API 
calls used will be relativly small.
