  49 <p>The <strong>MUtilities</strong> library is a collection of routines and classes to extend the <a href="http://qt-project.org/"><em>Qt cross-platform framework</em></a>. It contains various convenience and utility functions as well as wrappers for OS-specific functionalities. The library was originally created as a &quot;side product&quot; of the <a href="http://lamexp.sourceforge.net/"><strong>LameXP</strong></a> application: Over the years, a lot of code, <strong>not</strong> really specific to <em>LameXP</em>, had accumulated in the <em>LameXP</em> code base. Some of that code even had been used in other projects too, in a &quot;copy &amp; paste&quot; fashion – which had lead to redundancy and much complicated maintenance. In order to clean-up the LameXP code base, to eliminate the ugly redundancy and to simplify maintenance, the code in question has finally been refactored into the <strong>MUtilities</strong> (aka &quot;MuldeR's Utilities for Qt&quot;) library. This library now forms the foundation of <em>LameXP</em> and <a href="https://github.com/lordmulder"><em>other OpenSource projects</em></a>.</p>
