+qarma
+=====
+
+Qarma is a tool to create dialog boxes, based on Qt.
+It's a clone of Zenity which was written for GTK+.
+
+
+Q: Why do you waste time cloning a perfectly fine tool?
+
+A:
+"The answer is that GTK+ is primarily intended to be used on the GNOME desktop"
+"GTK+ must focus on being the toolkit of the GNOME platform first, and tackle integration second."
+
+See this [LWN Article](https://lwn.net/Articles/562856/) and this [blog post](http://blogs.gnome.org/mclasen/2014/03/21/dialogs-in-gtk-3-12/).
+
+Q: Does the name mean anything?
+A: Yes.
