Subject: Qt API for WLX plugins

Hi folks!
First of all great thanks to the authors of Total Commander for such a great file manager!
To make it even better and simplify development of WLX extensions I created an intermediate library which provides C++ WLX API for Qt classes.
Qt is a big C++ toolkit which includes as UI as many other classes. It simplifies development of UI and allows a programmer to build a fine GUI in just several lines of code.
The intermediate layer I wrote transforms native WinAPI calls, structures, and event processing into an ordinary Qt entities such as QWidget's and other.
This plugin API can be obtained at my GitHub: https://github.com/a-ilin/tcqtface
Please feel free ask any questions, make suggestions and provide feedback![Smile]()
P.S. I will post detailed HOWTO on the API in a couple of days. By now you can look at the example plugin which renders Qt interface .ui files: QtUiViewer. It is located at the same Git repo.
