So, you would use the K headers for applications that are dependent on
running under the KDE window manager?

I have been able to get GTK+ programs to compile. However, it seems a
bit limited. Labels, for example, have no Click() event.

But none of the QT programs in the book will compile. $QTDIR is not
defined, and when I tried to set it up I get an error message cannot
find lib QT.  I don't think it is installed even though the header
files are where they are supposed to be (in /usr/include/qt3.)
