+.SH NAME
+uic \- Qt user interface compiler
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B uic
+[options] file
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This page documents the
+.B User Interface Compiler
+for the Qt GUI toolkit. The
+.B uic
+reads a user interface definition (.ui) file in XML as generated by
+.I Qt Designer
+and creates corresponding C++ header or source files. It also
+generates an image file that embeds raw image data in C++ source code.
+.PP
+.PP
+Generate declaration:
+.br
+.I "\fB uic [options] \fI<file>"
+.br
+.PP
+Generate implementation:
+.br
+.I "\fB uic [options] -impl \fI<headerfile> <file>"
+.br
+ \fI<headerfile>\fP: name of the declaration file
+.br
+.PP
+Generate image collection:
+.br
+.I "\fB uic [options] -embed \fI<project> <image1> <image2> <image3>\fP ..."
+.br
+ \fI<project>\fP: project name
+ \fI<image[1..n]>\fP: image files
+.br
+.\" .PP
+.\" Generate binary UI file:
+.\" .br
+.\" .I "\fB uic [options] -binary \fI<file>"
+.\" .br
+.PP
+.PP
+For convenience,
+.B uic
+can also generate declaration or implementation stubs for subclasses.
+.PP
+Generate subclass declaration:
+.br
+.I "\fB uic [options] -subdecl \fI<subclassname> <baseclassheaderfile> <file>"
+.br
+ \fI<subclassname>\fP: name of the subclass to generate
+.br
+ \fI<baseclassheaderfile>\fP: declaration file of the baseclass
+.PP
+Generate subclass implementation:
+.br
+.I "\fB uic [options] -subimpl \fI<subclassname> <subclassheaderfile> <file>"
+.br
+ \fI<subclassname>\fP: name of the subclass to generate
+.br
+ \fI<subclassheaderfile>\fP: declaration file of the subclass
+
+.SH GENERAL OPTIONS
+.TP
+.I "-o file"
+Write output to
+.I file
+rather than to stdout.
+.TP
+.I "-nofwd"
+Omit forward declarations of custom classes in the generated
+header file. This is necessary if typedef classes are used.
+.TP
+.I "-tr func"
+Use
+.I func()
+instead of tr() for internationalization.
+.TP
+.I "-version"
+Display the version of
+.B uic
+and exit.
+
+.SH USAGE
+.B uic
+is almost always invoked by
+.BR make (1),
+rather than by hand.
+.PP
+Here are useful makefile rules if you only use GNU make:
+.PP
+.in +4
+%.h: %.ui
+.br
+ uic $< -o $@
+.br
+%.cpp: %.ui
+.br
+ uic -impl $*.h $< -o $@
+.in -4
+.PP
+If you want to write portably, you can use individual rules of the
+following form:
+.PP
+.in +4
+NAME.h: NAME.ui
+.br
+ uic $< -o $@
+.br
+NAME.cpp: NAME.ui
+.br
+ uic -impl $*.h $< -o $@
+.in -4
+.PP
+You must also remember to add
+.I NAME.cpp
+to your SOURCES (substitute your favorite name) variable and
+.I NAME.o
+to your OBJECTS variable.
+.PP
+(While we prefer to name our C++ source files .cpp, the
+.B uic
+doesn't care, so you can use .C, .cc, .CC, .cxx or even .c++ if
+you prefer.)
