 ===== The file view =====
-A Qt project is a collection of project description files, source code files, resource files, and binary output files. Some of these files must be explicitly generated using a text editor or similar tool, others are automatically generated by the build process. ((The explicit/automatic dichotomy holds true whether you are using an IDE or a simple command line based environment. However, an IDE will typically manage the explicit generation of may of the files for you (e.g., *.pro files).))
