That is logical as you are not supposed to do that :) Seriously, the Qt/KDE 
templates are almost identical and you can turn a Qt-only program into a KDE 
program with the appropriate checks, but not a C++/C only terminal program as 
you're missing the complete stuff that automates moc, uic etc. This is why 
you need to generate a Qt-application to create one, otherwise we would 
pollute a C/C++ terminal application with  a few 100kb of unnecessary data 
for the checks and stuff, which is what you don't want if you just want to 
write a little commandline tool.
