Bitcoin-qt: Qt4 based GUI replacement for Bitcoin
=================================================
**Warning** **Warning** **Warning**
Features
========
Alpha version! I'm using this client myself on the production network, and I haven't noticed any glitches, but remember: always backup your wallet.
Testing on the testnet is recommended.
This has been implemented:
- qmake / QtCreator project (.pro)
- All functionality of the original client, including wallet encryption
- Compatibility with Linux (both GNOME and KDE), MacOSX and Windows
- All functionality of the original client, including taskbar icon/menu and wallet encryption
- Splash screen
- Tabbed interface

- Accepts "bitcoin:" URLs from browsers through drag and drop
This has to be done:
- Start at system start
- Support more languages (please send translations)
Build instructions

UPNnP port forwarding
=====================
To use UPnP for port forwarding behind a NAT router (recommended, as more connections overall allow for a faster and more stable bitcoin experience), pass the following argument to qmake:
::
qmake "USE_UPNP=1"
(in **Qt Creator**, you can find the setting for additional qmake arguments under "Projects" -> "Build Settings" -> "Build Steps", then click "Details" next to **qmake**)
This requires miniupnpc for UPnP port mapping. It can be downloaded from
http://miniupnp.tuxfamily.org/files/. UPnP support is not compiled in by default.
Set USE_UPNP to a different value to control this:
+------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
| USE_UPNP= | (the default) no UPnP support, miniupnp not required; |
+------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
| USE_UPNP=0 | UPnP support turned off by default at runtime; |
+------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
| USE_UPNP=1 | UPnP support turned on by default at runtime. |
