Just so there is no duplicated effort, I wanted to let everyone know that a friend of mine is actively working on the Qt port. Right now it actually brings up a GUI and you can almost use it.

He just dropped me another tarball last night that is synched with the current CVS, so I think I'm going to go ahead and make a branch for it. I will add the configure mucking to not work against Qt/Win or Qt/Mac (neither of which I have on my machines here at home). I still think that is kind of This currently works with X11, Mac, and embedded versions of Qt. Seeing XEmacs with graphics on the console is kind of freaky. :)

We have to decide what to call it though. Sam & I talked about this a bit, and we agree that QXEmacs is decent (pronounced Queasy-Macs). Any objections?
