title: What does cursive writing of a method name mean in C++ / Qt-Creator
body: <p>I`ve got a quick question :</p>
  
  <p>I`m programming in C++ / Qt-Creator. </p>
  
  <p>In the *.h and the *.cpp-Files I have the name of the methods written in different fonts - Sometimes they are in <em>cursive letters</em>, sometimes they are not cursive. </p>
  
  <p>For example what would be the difference between </p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>virtual void <em>clearTab</em>();</li>
  <li>void addStringItems();</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>My guess is that this is this to distinguish between class-specific methods and inheritable/inheritad methods. Is that true?</p>
  
  <p>Thank you </p>
