    Where did you get that information from?

    Is there any official word from Nokia about this?

    The only thing I've ever heard referred to as "QT" is QuickTime.  That

    that's from Apple and should be irrelevant to Eagle anyway.

    OK, I did.  It looks like that's yet another middleware layer for web based

    applications and of course smart phones.  What does that have to do with

    Eagle?

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qt_%28framework%29

     

    Qt is used for the whole GUI of Eagle.

    No idea where you get that impression! Qt has nothing to do with web or

    mobile phones. It's a cross-platform GUI tool kit and the basis of the

    KDE desktop environment for non-MS computers (rather as Gtk is for the

    Gnome desktop). Eagle uses Qt for its user interface.

    I got the impression from the very first paragraph of the link someone

    posted earlier:

     

    "Using Qt, you can write web-enabled applications once and deploy them

    across desktop, mobile and embedded operating systems without rewriting the

    source code."

     

    Quote:

    Eagle uses Qt for its user interface.

     

    Ah, that's the part I didn't know.
