Hi, I've collected some external tools, nothing special - just handy
utilities for formatting.
I'd like to re-distribute these for others to use, but at the moment
users would need to install executable scripts in their $PATH.
It would be nice if there was an identifier for the path used for external tools
/home/ideasman42/.config/Nokia/qtcreator/externaltools/some_tool.sh
... would be nice to be able to use and identifier like...
%{ApplicationConfig:Path}/externaltools/some_tool.sh
This way you could just tell the user to extract an archive into the
externaltools path and it would work immediately.
Or is this already possible somehow?

incase anyones interested - the tools are...
- run uncrustify on the selection
- convert // comment blocks to /* */
- expand non leading tabs into spaces & remove trailing whitespace.
- use meld to diff the repo (nice for side-by-side diff's)
- sort that takes file path slashes into account so deep paths are last.
- right align trailing character, nice for formatting macros that use
a lot of trailing '\' chars in some cases.
