You need to use the Edit -> Slots menu in Qt3 Designer to bring up a
dialog called 'Edit Functions' (confusing!). Then add a virtual
function called init() which takes no arguments, returns void and isn't
a slot. When you use rbuic to generate the ruby code, it will add a
call to init() at the end of the initialize method for the form's
class.
