  \class Qtx
  \brief A set of helpful utility functions.

  The class implements a set of the static functions which can be used
  for the different purposes:
  - specify tab order for the set of widgets: setTabOrder()
  - align one widget to the coordinates of the another one: alignWidget()
  - remove extra separators from the menu or toolbar: simplifySeparators()
  - retrieve directory, file name and extension parts of the path:
  dir(), file(), extension()
  - get the path to the temporary directory: tmpDir()
  - create or remove a directory (recursively): mkDir(), rmDir()
  - convert text file from DOS to UNIX native format: dos2unix()
  - convert a picture to the gray scale: grayscale()
  - other

  This helper class can be used to solve the localization problems,

  The problem relates to such locale specific settings as decimal point
  separator, thousands separator, etc.
  
  To use the Localizer class, just create a local variable in the beginning
  of the code where you need to read / write data from textual file(s).
  The constructor of the class forces setting "C" locale temporariy.
  The destructor switches back to the initial locale.

  \class Qtx::BackgroundData
  \brief Stores background data

  This class is used to store background data. Depending on the mode,
  the background can be specified by:
  - image (by assigning the file name to be used as background texture), see setTexture(), setTextureShown()
  - single color (by assigning any color), see setColor()
  - simple two-color gradient (with the gradient type id and two colors), see setGradient( int, const QColor&, const QColor& )
  - complex gradient (by assigning arbitrary gradient data), see setGradient( const QGradient& )

  The class stores all the data passed to it, so switching between different modes can be done
  just by calling setMode() function.

  \note Texture is used with combination of the background mode.

  \note Two-color gradient is specified by two colors and integer identifier. The interpretation of 
  this identifier should be done in the calling code.

  \code
  Qtx::BackgroundData bg;
  bg.setColor( QColor(100, 100, 100) );                  // bg is switched to Qtx::ColorBackground mode
  bg.setGradient( Qt::Horizontal, Qt::gray, Qt::white ); // bg is switched to Qtx::ColorBackground mode
