+    Declares a QFileSystemModel as data model for viewing
+    the local file system. QFileSystem works with a cache, that is,
+    it is updated continually with QFileSystemWatcher on that folder.

+
+    Creates a model/view implementation called \c tree
+    for viewing the filesystem.

+    \printuntil tree.setWindowTitle
+
+    Sets some formatting options for \c tree.
