The thing I find annoying is that with the gtk graphics, I could call
graphical things from the console. Qt breaks attempting to define "wd":
load 'd:\users\devonmcc\j64-802\addons\ide\qt\qt.ijs'
|domain error: wd1
|wd1[0]
13!:1''
|domain error
*wd1[0]
| 'r c l p n'=. wd1(,y);(#,y);(,2);(,0)
|wd[0]
| ver=. wd'version'
|checkjqtversion[1]
| checkjqtversion''
|[-248] d:\users\devonmcc\j64-802\addons\ide\qt\qt.ijs
| 0!:0 y[4!:55<'y'
|script[0]
|fn[0]
| fn fl
|load[:7]

|load[0]
| load'd:\users\devonmcc\j64-802\addons\ide\qt\qt.ijs'
wd1
'"libjqt" wd + i *c i * *i'&(15!:0)
