useraction.xmlThis appendix gives several examples of useraction.xml files. With this you can begin to discover the power of the &useractions_lnk; and start learning how to use them. Once you understand how to write UserActions you will find that &krusader; is an even more powerful, customizable tool. Please consider to upload your UserActions at &kde_files_url;. We are collecting UserActions, if your UserAction is selected by us it will be shipped with &krusader; at the next release. We provide also an &useractionsforum_url;.
