In a previous article i’ve wrote about creating qr code from the command line, but perhaps this is not always the preferred method for everyone.
So QtQR come to help us with a graphical frontend, QtQR is a GUI front-end for linux’s qrencode made in Python & Qt
Dependencies
zbar for decoding
PIL for decoding
PyQt4
Python 2.6
Instructions
Make sure you have installed all the dependencies: qrencode and python-zbar.
Decompress qtqr-latest.tar.lzma to a directory, for example /home/me/qtqr.
Open a terminal and cd to the dir you decompressed the file: cd /home/me/qtqr
run: python qtqr.py
Once run the use is trivial, just check this video if you don’t believe me:
