Why not? Most of the administrative boundarys are in Openstreetmap. It would 
be nice if they are used in this way. :-)

Greetings, Carsten

 Hi,

 I made a simple currency calculator as I could not find any.
 Feature:
  * can save excahnge rate :-)

looks good so far. i like the big buttons, nice for punching numbers
when walking.
only one thing that is pointing its self out. now that i can save the
rate i wish i could save multiple rates. 2-4 maybe...  perhaps
accessible through one button that you hit multiple times to cycle
through the saved rates.

really nice application though. this will be used!

Thanks. I knew this question would come up ;-)

I have different ideas (store and select different exchange rates, get rates 
over internet, ...).

The reason I wrote it - I am travelling in Febuary. So new features will not 
come until March...

Cheers,
 Christian

PS: does anyone know a good API for C++ to get exchange rates?

No, different airline ;-)

If you need to change the rate, you can edit .config/QCurrency/QCurrency.conf, 
or write a simple script (sed...) to set your value there...
You could even use coordinates to set proper rate for the country you are in ;-)

That looks like a great application. Now if only we could find a way to install 
lots of utilities without making the default application launcher impossible to 
use...

not so elegant but working very well: make launcher icons smaller
