Hi, Are any plans to add Qt5 support for this nice tool?

I will not have time to do it in the near term, but contributions are welcomed.

Let's keep this open until this is taken care of one way or another. Thanks for taking the time to report it.

If someone wants to take a shot at this, perhaps some inspiration could be taken from the following PR I just merged: #8 . It ports the old GTK 2 UI to GTK 3, to the point where a window with some controls is shown if you run it. A handful of TODOs left before the GTK UI can be considered useful though. And probably som 8000 e work needed in addition to the known TODOs.

In any case, I imagine porting from Qt4 to Qt5 would be similar in many ways, so just wanted to reference that PR in this ticket.

I forgot to mention: I recently converted all Python code in the git repo to Python 3 in this commit, including the Qt UI code. So one less problem to take care of for whoever takes a shot at fixing this issue ...

So, for now, Qt5 is NOT supported?
