# Project Description
QWBFS Manager provides a cross platform Qt 4 GUI for working with hard disk drives that have been formatted to the WBFS file system.
This is a cross platform 32/64bits (Windows, OS X, Linux/Unix like) alternative to [WBFS Manager](http://wbfsmanager.codeplex.com/).

  * Indirect transfer can lead to WBFS convertion to ISO of 4.4GB in a temporary file in you system path.

# Requirements
  * Qt 4.5.0 minimum (bundled with mac os x & windows packages)
  * OpenSSL (bundled with mac os x & windows packages)
  * A brain
  * A chair
  * Some fingers

# Instructions
  * Install using setup.
  * Plug in the hard drive or USB stick.
  * Run the application.
  * Choose the correct drive letter.
  * Click Load. (If you haven't already formatted the disk to WBFS, you can do that by clicking Format).
  * You should now see any backups on the drive on the right hand side.
  * You can drag and drop ISO files from Windows Explorer onto the left hand side or you can browse the file system in the left hand view.
  * Click the Process the import list button to copy them over to the WBFS drive.
  * Enjoy!

# Remaining Future Plans
  * UnRar functionality to automatically UnRar files and add the iso to the WBFS drive.
  * ~~ISO library.~~
  * ~~Additional info from ISO (Game image shown in Disc Channel,...).~~
