[Qt-creator] 2 suggestion and a problem ;)

[Christophe Meessen]

Hello,

The first suggestion is the following. I use tiddlywiki which is a wiki 
self contained in a single html file. I use it to store my todo, 
software manual, howto information.  A double click on it opens the wiki 
in my prefered browser and allows me to edit it. I would be nice if it 
was possible to add an html file to a Qt project, or project subfolder, 
so that double clicking it would open a WebKit window (as QtDesigner 
does) and allow me to view and eventually edit the html file content.

The second suggestion, would be to allow to add the binding between a 
type of file and a specific editor/viewer. When this type of file is 
added to the project, a double click on it would start the corresponding 
editor/viewer. I guess the editor/viewer would be added as a plugin. The 
kind of editor/viewers that would be interesting are  a binary hex file 
editor, image editor, sound editor, video editor, etc.

I met the following problem with Qt Creator 4.5. My current project is 
big, so I use subfolders and pri files which works well. Each of these 
subfolders group the model view controller classes of a particular 
functionality of my system. When I start a new project, I simply add 
symbolic links (unix) to the wiget folder and the include instruction in 
the .pro file and thats it. Unfortunately I wasn't able to add a simple 
text file in the .pri file. It is ignored. .txt files can only be added 
in the .pro file. I use it to track my todos. Though I would prefer to 
use tiddlywiki  files instead of text files. It would also be used as 
manual or logbok. Unfortunately the tddlywiki are big files, ~350KB. A 
pluggin could hold a single copy of all the java script code so that the 
file contains only the user data. But the principle is great.
