+Notes
+-----
+- The settings debug = 1 and optimize = 1 are strictly required if you use
+ a precompiled Qt release from the Qt Project; otherwise you will get linker
+ errors
+- On 64-bit Windows it's "Program Files (x86)" instead of "Program Files" in the
+ paths
+- Currently only 32-bit builds of the Swift client are supported
