Hi,
Cestmir:
I was thinking about either some toString / fromString methods on
Setting<T>, or using QSettings inside (which is based on QVariant)
Tomas:
I wasn't thinking about the underlying layer too much yet. But it
should probably be some text file as you're writing or a QSettings
class. QSettings has the advantage that we won't have to care about any
of the platform dependent stuff.
