initial version

I used QT Creator in the past (and decided the code completion was either bad or required magic that I couldn’t figure out). I did not have problems with cmake, though. I followed the following steps, which are slightly different it seems than yours. With an existing ros package:

Go to File->New File or Project->Import Project->Import Existing Projects, click choose Create a project name (I used the ROS package name), then select (navigate inside) the folder of the package. Click next. Select ALL checkboxes to include all files.

I think these steps are also on the ROS IDE's page.
