QSettings - .ini - and storing path to files

[squidge]

And there is ToNativeSeperators and friends to convert back and forth, so no need to do it yourself.

for example:

lastPath = appSettings->value("myFilePath",QApplication::applicationDirPath()).toString();
...
appSettings->setValue("myFilePath", QFileInfo(fn).absolutePath());

lastPath = appSettings->value("myFilePath",QApplication::applicationDirPath()).toString();
...
appSettings->setValue("myFilePath", QFileInfo(fn).absolutePath());

Qt hides platform specific stuff - just try it
