Oh frabjous day! Oh joy for all its former woes a thousand fold repaid!
Whoops! I've spent a significant amount of time in the previous two months
or so trying to write either a parser for the C++ files QtArchitect
generates, or a parser for the inane save-file format it used.

Finally I gave up and started to sketch out a gui designer in Python
that could save in XML. If the xml-files contain enough information,
writing a simple conversion script should be easy. I'm going to look
into it this week - if time permits...
