<title>&konqueror; Basics</title>
|

|

<important><para>Like all &kde; applications, &konqueror; is highly
|
|
configurable. This document describes how &konqueror; behaves with the normal,
|
|
default settings.</para>
|
|
<para> A three button mouse can be useful when you are running
|
|
&konqueror; or any other &kde; application. If your mouse only has two buttons
|
|
then you should be able to set your system up so that you can simulate a &MMB;
|
|
by pressing both buttons at the same time.</para>
|
|
<para>You can read more about mouse usage in <xref
|
|
linkend="lmb-mmb"/></para>
|
|
<para>If you are used to having to double-click to perform an action,
|
|
then take care, because in common with the rest of &kde;, &konqueror; defaults
|
|
to single-clicking.</para></important>

<para>Being a combined File Manager and Browser,
|
|
&konqueror; will automatically

switch between the two modes as needed when it is running, but it is convenient
|

to be able to choose which mode is to be used when you start it up.</para>

<title>The Parts of &konqueror;</title>

|
<para>A brief look at the main parts of &konqueror;'s window:</para>

|
|
|
|
<para>The <interface>Titlebar</interface> is the strip across the top of
|
|
&konqueror;'s window, and operates in the same way as for other &kde;
|
|
applications. <mousebutton>Right</mousebutton> click on the central portion to
|
|
bring up the neat Titlebar menu.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <interface>Menubar</interface> is the strip containing the names of
|
|
the drop-down menus. <mousebutton>Left</mousebutton> click on a name to
|
|
alternately show and hide that menu, or use <keycombo
|
|
action="simul">&Alt;<keycap>the underlined
|
|
letter</keycap></keycombo> in the name as a hot key, for example <keycombo
|
|
action="simul">&Alt;<keycap>E</keycap></keycombo> to show the
|
|
<guimenu>Edit</guimenu> menu. The various menus are described in the <link
|
|
linkend="menubar">Menubar</link> section of this document.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <interface>Toolbar</interface> contains icons for commonly used
|
|
operations. <mousebutton>Left</mousebutton> clicking on an icon will activate
|
|
it. A brief description of what that icon does will appear when you hover
|
|
the pointer over it.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Some icons, for example the Up and Back icons in the previous screenshot,
|
|
have a small black arrow at the right. If you click with the &LMB;
|
|
at this arrow a small dropdown menu will
|
|
appear.</para> <para><mousebutton>Right</mousebutton> clicking on the
|
|
<interface>Toolbar</interface> will bring up the <link
|
|
linkend="rmb-menus"><guilabel>Toolbar Settings</guilabel> menu</link> which you can use
|
|
to change the <interface>Toolbar</interface>'s appearance and position.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <interface>Location Toolbar</interface> shows the path to the
|
|
directory, &URL; or file being viewed. You can type a path or &URL; here and
|
|
press &Enter; or <mousebutton>left</mousebutton> click on the
|
|
<guiicon>Go</guiicon> icon at the right hand end of the <interface>Location
|
|
Toolbar</interface> to go to it. The black icon at the right hand end of the
|
|
<interface>Location Toolbar</interface> clears the text entry box.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <interface>Bookmark Toolbar</interface> is the area under the
|
|
<interface>Location Toolbar</interface> in the previous screenshot. You can add
|
|
frequently used bookmarks here; see the <link
|
|
linkend="orgbmark">Organizing
|
|
Your
|
|
Bookmarks</link> section of this document.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <interface>Window</interface> is the main area of &konqueror; and
|
|
can show you the contents of a directory, web page, document or image. Using
|
|
the <link linkend="menu-window"><guimenu>Window</guimenu></link> menu you can
|
|
split &konqueror;'s main window into one or more separate views, useful for
|
|
drag and drop operations, or set it to contain two or more tabbed views.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <interface>Status Bar</interface> runs across the bottom of the
|
|
&konqueror;'s window
|
|
and often shows general information about whatever the mouse pointer is
|
|
hovering
|
|
over. If you have split the main window into a number of views you will get a
|
|
Status Bar for each view, and it will include a small green light at the left
|
|
hand end to show which is the <quote>active</quote>
|
|
view. <mousebutton>Right</mousebutton> clicking on the Status Bar brings up the
|
|
Status Bar <link linkend="rmb-menus"><mousebutton>Right</mousebutton> Mouse
|
|
Button Menu</link>.</para>

<para>You can view &kde; Help and &UNIX; Man and Info pages directly in
|
|
&konqueror;, without having to start up <application>KHelpCenter</application>.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>To view a &kde; Help page, enter
|
|
<userinput>help:/<replaceable>application name</replaceable></userinput> (for
|
|
example <userinput>help:/kmail</userinput> to view the &kmail; documentation.)
|
|
into &konqueror;'s Location Toolbar window.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
If you want to read &UNIX; Man pages &konqueror; makes it easy. For
|
|
example type <userinput>man:/touch</userinput> or
|
|
<userinput>#touch</userinput> into the Location Toolbar to see the page for
|
|
the <command>touch</command> command.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>To browse through &UNIX; Info pages, entering
|
|
<userinput>info:/dir</userinput> takes you to Info's top level directory, then
|
|
it's just a matter of clicking on the right links to find the page you
|
|
want. Alternatively, use <userinput>info:/<replaceable>command
|
|
name</replaceable></userinput> to go straight to the Info page you want.</para>

|
|
|
<note><para>Unfortunately, &kde; Help pages are stored in such a way that they

cannot be viewed in other browsers. If you really need to do this your only

recourse is to go online and visit <ulink url="http://docs.kde.org">

<title>Folders and Paths</title>
|
|
<para>In &UNIX; and &Linux; all folders are arranged in a simple
|
|
hierarchy. Starting from a top level folder (also called the root directory),
|
|
the structure descends and branches containing various files and subfolders.
|
|
This means that you can get from any folder to any other by going <quote>up
|
|
</quote> until you reach a common point then <quote>down</quote> through
|
|
the appropriate subfolders until you reach your target.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The position of any file or folder in the structure (also called a
|
|
directory tree) can be described by its <quote>path</quote>, which is a simple
|
|
list of the folders you would have to descend through to get to the target
|
|
folder or file. For example <filename class="directory">/home/pam</filename>
|
|
is the subfolder <filename class="directory">pam</filename> of the subfolder
|
|
<filename class="directory">home</filename> of the top level folder, and
|
|
<filename>/home/pam/words.txt</filename> is the file <filename>words.txt
|
|
</filename> in that subfolder. The leading <quote>/</quote> in these paths
|
|
represents the top level folder.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Every folder accessible by your system — including those on
|
|
other hard disk partitions, a USB device or &CD-ROM; — will appear
|
|
in the tree descending from /, their exact paths will depend on how your system
|
|
was set up (see also the section on <link linkend="removable-devices">Removable Devices</link>).
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>Every user on a &UNIX; / &Linux; system has their own <quote>home</quote>
|
|
folder to hold their personal files and settings; for example
|
|
<filename class="directory">/home/john</filename> and
|
|
<filename class="directory">/home/mary</filename>. The
|
|
symbol <keycap>~</keycap> is often used to represent the user's home
|
|
folder, so that <filename>~/letter.txt</filename> refers to the file
|
|
<filename>letter.txt</filename> in my home folder.</para>
|
|
<para>Note that the term <quote>directory</quote> is often used instead of
|
|
<quote>folder</quote>.</para>

<para>In File Manager mode, &konqueror; lists which files and subfolders are
|
|
contained within a given folder and can provide you with some information about
|
|
them. The <quote>path</quote> of the current folder is shown in the Location
|
|
Toolbar. The way that &konqueror; displays the files and folders depends mainly
|
|
on your choice of view mode which can be selected from the
|
|
<menuchoice><guimenu>View</guimenu><guisubmenu>View
|

|
<para>If enabled, &konqueror;'s Web Shortcuts
|
|
feature lets you submit a query directly to a search engine or similar web site
|
|
without having to visit the site first.</para> <para>For example, entering
|
|
<userinput>gg:konqueror</userinput> into the Location Bar and pressing &Enter;
|
|
will ask <trademark>Google</trademark> to search for items related to
|
|
&konqueror;.</para>
|
|
<para>To see what Web Shortcuts are available, and perhaps
|
|
add your own, use <menuchoice><guimenu>Settings</guimenu><guimenuitem>Configure
|
|
Konqueror...</guimenuitem></menuchoice> and open the <guilabel>Web Shortcuts</guilabel>
|
|
page.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Once there, to make a new Web Shortcut select
|
|
<guibutton>New...</guibutton> and you will now have a new dialog
|
|
requesting the options and specifications of your new Web
|
|
Shortcut. The first field is for the human readable name of the search
|
|
provider; that is, simply the name of the Search provider. For
|
|
example, <trademark>Google</trademark>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>In the next field you should enter the &URI; that is used to do a
|
|
search on the search engine. The whole text to be searched for can be
|
|
specified as <userinput>\{@}</userinput> or
|
|
<userinput>\{0}</userinput>. The recommended version is
|
|
<userinput>\{@}</userinput> since it removes all query variables
|
|
(<replaceable>name</replaceable>=<replaceable>value</replaceable>)
|
|
from the resulting string whereas <userinput>\{0}</userinput> will be
|
|
substituted with the unmodified query string. </para>
|
|
|
|
<para>You can use <userinput>\{1}</userinput>
|
|
... <userinput>\{n}</userinput> to specify certain words from the
|
|
query and
|
|
<userinput>\{<varname><replaceable>name</replaceable></varname>}</userinput>
|
|
to specify a value given by
|
|
<userinput><varname><replaceable>name</replaceable></varname>=<replaceable>value</replaceable></userinput>
|
|
in the user query. In addition it is possible to specify multiple
|
|
references (names, numbers and strings) at once, like
|
|
<userinput>(\{<varname><replaceable>name1</replaceable></varname>,<varname><replaceable>name2</replaceable></varname>,...,"<replaceable>string</replaceable>"})</userinput>. The first
|
|
matching value (from the left) will be used as substitution value for
|
|
the resulting &URI;. A quoted string can be used as the default value if
|
|
nothing matches from the left of the reference list.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>To make a basic Web Shortcut here however, all that is required
|
|
is the &URI; that is used to do a search on the search
|
|
engine. Following our previous example with
|
|
<trademark>Google</trademark>, we would enter
|
|
<userinput>http://www.google.com/search?q=\{@}&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8</userinput>. You
|
|
can often easily find where to place the <userinput>\{@}</userinput>
|
|
by doing a search on the search engine in question, and then analyzing
|
|
the &URL; address. For example, doing a <trademark>Google</trademark>
|
|
search for &konqueror; produces the &URL;: <ulink

the keyboard keys for functions which would perhaps normally be done

the <sgmltag class="attribute">accesskey</sgmltag> attribute in the given link, then the

character(s) should appear over the link, identifying what needs to be

access keys once activated you can press &Ctrl; again.</para>

designer of the page has specifically assigned, using the

link. Many web designers might not include the

<sgmltag class="attribute">accesskey</sgmltag> in their links and forms, and

<para>&FTP;, or File Transfer Protocol, is one of the earliest, and still

perhaps the best, way of transferring files between computers over the

these characters for you if you leave them out.</para></note>

<para>When you access an &FTP; site it will usually need some form of username

address as a password, and to make your life even easier &konqueror; will

automatically supply these without troubling you. </para>

<note><para>If you try to access an &FTP; site that does not need a proper

username or password but which is too busy to accept any more connections,

&konqueror; often interprets the <quote>busy</quote> message as a request for
|

a name and password and will therefore pop up a dialog box asking you to
|
|
supply them.</para></note>

selecting <menuchoice><guimenu>Settings</guimenu><guimenuitem>Save View

&konqueror; is started.</para>

change the <guimenu>View</guimenu> settings in the dialog to whatever you want. Then apply

minitools (Bookmarklets - Enables the use of bookmarklets)
|
|
This plugin adds implementation for so-called bookmarklets. Bookmarklets are little
|
|
Javascript programs which can be saved and used like normal web page bookmarks. Therefore,
|
|
they are simple "one-click" tools that can add substantial functionality to the browser.

autorefresh

This works on any readonly part (though currently it only plugs into

|
khtmlpart). It lets you tell konqueror to refresh a page automatically

<title>&fsview; - the File System View</title>
|

<sect2>
|
|
<title>Introduction</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The &fsview; Plugin for &konqueror; is another view mode for
|
|
objects of mimetype <literal>inode/directory</literal> for local
|
|
files. It can be viewed as an alternative to the various iconviews and
|
|
listviews for browsing the content of your local file system.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The unique property of &fsview; is its ability to show whole
|
|
nested folder hierarchies using a so-called tree map for graphical
|
|
visualization. Tree maps allow for displaying metrics of objects in
|
|
nested structures: each object is represented by a rectangle whose
|
|
area is proportional to its metric. The sum of the children's metrics must be
|
|
equal to or smaller than the parent object's metric.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>For &fsview;, sizes of files and folders are chosen as the
|
|
metric, where the size of a folder is defined to be the sum of the
|
|
sizes of its subitems. This way, big files even deep down in the
|
|
folder hierarchy can be spotted easily be looking for large
|
|
rectangles. So &fsview; can be looked at as a graphical and interactive
|
|
version of the &UNIX; <command>du</command> command.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The integration of &fsview; as part of Konqueror allows it to
|
|
use the standard features such as context file menus, and mime type
|
|
sensitive actions. But it was chosen not to implement automatic
|
|
update by watching file system changes: if you delete a file shown
|
|
in &fsview; outside of &konqueror;, you have to update manually by
|
|
⪚ pressing <keycap>F5</keycap> to see the change. The reason for this
|
|
decision is the potentially huge number of files which would have to be watched
|
|
for changes, and thus, could put an unreasonable pressure on system
|
|
resources for a small feature.</para>

<sect3>
|
|
<title>Item Drawing Options</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>In &fsview;, an item of the tree map visualization is a rectangle
|
|
representing a file or folder of your file system. For easier navigation,
|
|
rectangles have meaningful coloring and labeling options.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The color of a rectangle, switchable via menu item
|
|
<menuchoice><guimenu>View</guimenu><guisubmenu>Color
|
|
Mode</guisubmenu></menuchoice> can be either representative of
|
|

<para>A rectangle can be labeled with the various attributes
|
|
of the corresponding file or folder. For each attribute, you can
|
|
choose whether it should be shown at all, only if space is available,
|
|
or if space should be taken from children (thus introducing
|
|
errors to pure tree map drawing constraints). Additionally, you can choose
|
|
the relative location of the label in the rectangle.</para>

<title>TreeMap Drawing Algorithms</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>For drawing algorithms in tree maps, the rule that the area
|
|
is proportional to the metric of an item should hold true.
|
|
With the tree map in &fsview;, this goal isn't always met: we draw borders
|
|
to show the nesting of items, and this border takes space for an item
|
|
which is possibly lost for the areas of child items. Note that
|
|
less space is lost for the border if the rectangle is quadratic.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Similarly, it is better for a good overview to let each rectangle
|
|
at least have its name as a label. It is an option to
|
|
always force space for labels, or only to draw labels when empty space
|
|
is available. In the latter case, the tool tips appearing when the
|
|
mouse is held over an item can help a lot. They show
|
|
information for the item the mouse is currently over, together with
|
|
its parent folders up to the root item of the tree map.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>How the space of an item is split into subareas for children is
|
|
left to the implementation. It is always better to try to split areas
|
|
in such a way that rectangles are as quadratic as possible, both for
|
|
labeling and less space lost by borders. The best methods in this
|
|
regard are <guilabel>Rows</guilabel>, <guilabel>Columns</guilabel>, or
|
|
<guilabel>Recursive Bisection</guilabel>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>You can choose the minimal area of items to be drawn via the
|
|
menu item <menuchoice><guimenu>View</guimenu><guimenuitem>Stop at
|
|
Area</guimenuitem></menuchoice>. Instead, a hash pattern will be drawn
|
|
over the parents area to signal that this space is in fact occupied by
|
|
a child or children.</para>

<title>User Interface</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>&fsview; supports multiple selection of items, similar to the
|
|
iconview and listview. This allows for actions to be done
|
|
simultaneously to a set of files. A simple mouse click always selects
|
|
a single item below the mouse pointer. Use a mouse click in
|
|
combination with pressing the &Shift; key for range selection or the
|
|
&Ctrl; key for selection toggle. Note that by selecting an item, subitems can no
|
|
longer be selected. Selecting an item will also clear the selection of all its
|
|
parent items before.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Keyboard navigation is available in tree maps: use
|
|
<keycap>Left Arrow</keycap> and <keycap>Right Arrow</keycap> keys to
|
|
move the current item between siblings, and the <keycap>Up
|
|
Arrow</keycap> and <keycap>Down Arrow</keycap> keys to go up and down
|
|
the nesting hierarchy. <keycap>Space</keycap> selects the item; in
|
|
conjunction with &Shift; does range selection; and with the &Ctrl; key
|
|
held down simultaneously, toggles selection of the current item. Press
|
|
<keycap>Return</keycap> to run the open action on the current item.</para>

<title>Configuring &konqueror;</title>

<para>If the toolbars are unlocked, on the left hand end of each bar you can see

|

How about we just get rid of this shortcut, and let people use Ctrl+F instead?
|
|
|
|
DF: We still have to do something about "find text in links", ideally integrating that functionality
|
|
into the find bar; as a short term fix we could just give it a better (Ctrl+something) shortcut
|
|
and get rid of the "focusin/focusout enables/disables the action" logic.

<question><para>Can I run &konqueror; from another window

<answer><para>Just install &Qt;, kdelibs and kdebase, and from your favorite
|
|
window manager, launch &konqueror;. It should work just fine, but if it
|
|
doesn't (&kde; developers don't test that case often), report it to <ulink
|
|
url="http://bugs.kde.org">http://bugs.kde.org</ulink> and try running
|
|
<application>kdeinit</application> before running &konqueror;; it usually
