\chapter Preface

This manual presents \QSAD, an IDE for creating, editing, running and
debugging \QS dialogs and code. The IDE features a complete code editor
which includes syntax highlighting and completion. In addition, \QSAD
provides a class browser and a signal viewer. \QSAD also
provides functionality for the user interface designer to create dialogs
with layout tools. \QSAD allows users to interactively connect C++
signals to C++ slots and Qt Script functions.

Those familiar with \e{Qt Designer} will immediately feel at home
because \QSAD takes the same approach to dialog design and provides
much of the same functionality.

This manual introduces you to \QSAD in the first chapter, by leading
you through the development of a short and simple script. The
remaining chapters provide reference material that explain \QSAD's
menu options, toolbars, key bindings, windows and dialogs in detail.
