Qstrings to Strings

[Helvin]

Just wanted to say, to convert qstrings (or integers for that matter)
to strings, use the str() function.

Hmmm, will that return a Unicode string? A byte string would be rather
inappropriate in most cases. I guess the unicode() function is the right
thing to use here (or the str() function in Py3 - no idea if that's
supported by Qt by now).

PyQt4.5 supports Python 3, so I imagine that str() will be what you would
use with that combination. For Python 2, unicode() is probably what most
people want.
