No, QPC can stay the same for this task.

Sure, it is. It's designed for that. But the only direct link between
QPC and SMSQ/E is the way the configuration works, because it is read
out of the SMSQ/E file. But then one can incorporate the same config
block in an other OS and it'd be fine again.

Well, but the incompatibilities are not worth it.

Perhaps I'll add a Q40 mode. Let's see.

Would really like to do that. But unfortunately for that my knowledge
of the internal functions is far too limited. And debugging SMSQ/E is
really no fun with the given tools.

Perhaps, but that shouldn't really be difficult, I'm afraid...
