Pushed by conet into branch 'master'.

Make the QIF import on Windows usable.

The QIF import on Windows never worked unless 'cat' was installed due to the preprocessing command feature.

Until the fix makes it into 4.6.2 and that gets packaged by the KDE on Windows team a simple workaround is to download Unix tools for Windows [1] and extract 'cat.exe' in the same folder as 'kmymoney.exe'.

yep, it works.

I downloaded the above package + copied cat.exe from the unix tools into the bin directory (where kmoney.exe resides) and it worked like a charm !

Thank you !
