Wacky... well the two options you would have then would be to a) implement the 
widget in C++, then make it a Qt widget plugin (there are scripts that can do 
this automaticly) or to do the same thing as a C++ program in javascript.  
Now IMHO if this is something where performance is critical, i WOULD 
reccomend going th widget plugin route.  This will ensure maximum performance 
and through the careful use of Qt properties it will give you a fair bit of 
flexability from javascript.

I turned to look but it was gone. I cannot put my finger on it now.
The child is grown, the dream is gone. I have become comfortably numb.
