Qt (pronounced "cute" ) is a cross-platform application development framework, widely used for the development of GUI programs (in which case it is known as a Widget toolkit), and also used for developing non-GUI programs such as console tools and servers. Qt is most notably used in KDE, the web browser Opera, Google Earth, Skype, Qtopia, Photoshop Elements and OPIE. It is produced by the Norwegian company Trolltech. Nokia made an offer to acquire Trolltech on January 28, 2008 .
Qt uses C++ with several non-standard extensions implemented by an additional pre-processor that generates standard C++ code before compilation. Qt can also be used in several other programming languages; bindings exist for Ada , C# , Java , Pascal, Perl, PHP (PHP-Qt), Ruby (RubyQt), and Python (PyQt). It runs on all major platforms, and has extensive internationalization support. Non-GUI features include SQL database access, XML parsing, thread management, network support and a unified cross-platform API for file handling.
"Jambi" is the platinum selling single from the Special Edition version of the album Stin Avli Tou Paradisou by Greek pop star Despina Vandi. It was released in Greece by Heaven Music and in the US by Ultra Records.
"Jambi" is the third single and the second track from 10,000 Days by Tool. It was made officially available for radio airplay on February 12, 2007. Adam Jones uses a talk box during the guitar solo.
Jambi is a province in Indonesia on the island of Sumatra, as well as the capital city of that province. The province's archaeological site at Candi Muaro Jambi dates to the Melayu Kingdom; the bulk of the site remains to be excavated, as of 2008.
The name "Jambi" is also a character from the show Pee-wee's Playhouse (specifically, a genie) and may be a related to a desire to "wish it all away."
The song is in 9/8 time, except for the guitar solo where the rhythm is temporarily changed to 6/8 before going back to 9/8.
