<p> This tutorial gives an introduction to GUI programming using the TQt
toolkit. It doesn't cover everything: the emphasis is on teaching the
programming philosophy of GUI programming, and TQt's features are
introduced as needed. Some commonly used features are never used in
this tutorial.
<p> Chapter one starts with a ten-line hello-world and each subsequent
chapter introduces one or a few more concepts. By Chapter 14, the ten
lines from Chapter 1 have turned into a 650-line game.
<p> If you're completely new to TQt, please read <a href="how-to-learn-qt.html">How to Learn TQt</a> if you haven't already done so.

<p> This little game doesn't look much like a modern GUI application. It
uses a good few of the GUI techniques, but after you've worked through
it, we recommend reading <a href="tutorial2.html">Tutorial #2</a>. The
second tutorial is a little more formal and covers the features of
typical application including menubars, toolbars, loading and saving,
dialogs, etc.
