Yes, in the makefile you can specify USE_QT4 instead of USE_QT3. It
doesn't work
right now, but it did a few weeks ago. Problem with QT4 is that copying
pixmap
to widget (bitblt) was so horribly slow. (And I did turn off double
buffering
plus some other other options, but it only helped a little bit.)

I don't know what the problem was, maybe my X setup is too old.

It's not surprising that bitblt is a little bit slower in QT4 since
their QPixmap is not a wrapper around the X Pixmap anymore. Maybe
that's the whole explanation. It was usable, but not very nice compared
to QT3.

File requesters and the FX selector are always made with QT4 though.
:-)
(IOW. Radium requires both QT3 and QT4 in the default setup.)
