+qt20fix \- Helps clean namespace when porting an app from Qt1 to Qt2
+.SH "SYNTAX"

+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.LP
+Qt 2.x is namespace\-clean, unlike 1.x. Qt now uses very
+few global identifiers. Identifiers like red, blue,
+LeftButton, AlignRight, Key_Up, Key_Down, NoBrush etc.
+are now part of a special class Qt (defined in
+qnamespace.h), which is inherited by most Qt classes.
+Member functions of classes that inherit from QWidget,
+etc. are totally unaffected, but code that is not in
+functions of classes inherited from Qt, you must qualify
+these identifiers like this: Qt::red, Qt::LeftButton,
+Qt::AlignRight, etc.
+
+The qt/bin/qt20fix script helps to fix the code that
+needs adaption, though most code does not need changing.
+
+Compiling with \-DQT1COMPATIBILITY will help you get going
+with Qt 2.x \- it allows all the old "dirty namespace"
+identifiers from Qt 1.x to continue working. Without it,
+you'll get compile errors that can easily be fixed by
+searching this page for the clean identifiers.
