Also, is it possible to work on such programs (that run in the terminal) for MeeGo using Qt SDK running on a Windows PC?

Thanks!
[EDIT]
You should extract the data parsing codes first.

You probably need to first wrap the C code under Qt...
In principle this should not be too hard and definitely worth a try if you want to learn Qt. I see the app use socket for communication... that is totally out of my scope. I was hoping to see some http communication for simpler QML implementation.

If you get it working, then you should make a QML interface.
