Re: Compiling in Qt
 

You don't need Visual Studio to do development on Windows. The Open Source version for windows does not include integration for it anyway. Grab the mingw package from ftp.trolltech.com

When you install the Qt for Windows, it should give you a link in the Start Menu Qt 4.4.1 Command Prompt. This will set up the development environment. After this you will need a good editor. Notepad++ is ok, emacs and vim run on windows as well.
