+All the book's examples are designed to be educational, and many are
+also designed to be useful. I hope that you find them helpful, and are
+perhaps able to use some of them as starting points for your own
+projects.

+Most of the icons and sounds are from KDE (The `K' Desktop Environment),
+and come under KDE's LGPL license. (Visit http:///www.kde.org for more
+information.)
+
+The entire set of examples can be built in one go by running qmake and
+then make (or nmake) in their top level directory---the directory that
+contains examples.pro.

+Note that the Alt_Key library's documentation is here:

+STOP PRESS:
+[1] The TiledListView::calculateRectsIfNecessary() function does not
+    play nicely with SQL-based models whose underlying database doesn't
+    report its query size. I've now incorporated an alternative
+    implementation (which can be switched on by uncommenting the DEFINE
+    line in the .pro file) that solves this problem and which is almost
+    the same as Johann's suggested solution.
+[2] I have now added an alternative implementation of the
+    BoxItem::mouseMoveEvent() handler for Page Designer. By default the
+    original implementation is used for pagedesigner1 and the
+    alternative one for pagedesigner2.
+
+COMPILER NOTE:
+If you get compiler errors regarding std::cos() or std::sin() with a
+Microsoft compiler add:
+    DEFINES += MSVC_COMPILER
+to the affected .pro files (i.e., folderview/folderview.pro,
+petridish1/petridish1.pro, and petridish2/petridish2.pro).
+If you have a better workaround please let me know.
