QtOIDUA is a graphical user interface for OIDUA for Linux and Mac OS X written in C++ using Qt. It is completely free and open source, and is licensed under the GNU GPL.
QtOIDUA supports all the features of OIDUA and makes it easy to create fields, add directories, choose colors, and set options. QtOIDUA also allows you to save list configuration files, so you can easily recreate any previously created list.
OIDUA is an Audiolist clone by Sylvester Johansson and Mattias Paivarinta. Its purpose is to generate lists of audio files based on their location in your directory tree.
So what does this all mean?
Basically, OIDUA makes it possible to create lists like this:

And QtOIDUA makes using OIDUA even easier.
If you are looking for a GUI for OIDUA for Microsoft Windows, you'll want Brandon West's GUIDUA. It is available to download at the OIDUA website.
If you would like to keep up with QtOIDUA news, an RSS Feed is now available (courtesy of SourceForge).
I realize QtOIDUA is a small project, but all help is greatly appreciated.
If you have any questions, comments, suggestions, or contributions, be sure to contact me. Thanks!
