Introduction of content into the kde help center application is awkward at
best.
The entire kde docbook sources are all located in ${kdedir}/share/doc/HTML/en.
Within the root folder of each application are the docbook source, a cache of
the generated presentation files and a symbolic link to the global files for
all kde documentation --- aptly named "common". This is the default location
for the content presented by the khelpcenter application.
The only difficulty I had in the whole process is generating the cache file.
Admittedly, I had a heck of a time figuring this one out --- even with the
help of google. HINT-HINT: Utilize the meinproc binary with the --cache
<file> option.
;)
Introduction of the content(naming scheme, icon, etc..) into the tree view of
the khelpcenter application is performed via a .desktop file located in the
proper directory. If you do not choose to place the documentation in the
${kdedir}/share/doc/HTML/en; then a .desktop configuration file must be used
to tell the application where the actual content is housed
- --- /usr/share/doc/packages maybe.
Then at any time a user can access the new content from the khelpcenter
application, through either the konqueror web browser, or via the konqueror
file management interface. All three avenues can be quickly navigated via the
"help" kioslave.
That's kde --- gnome --- you got me! ;)
