<title>Konfigurator: &krusader;'s Configuration
Center</title>
<indexterm>
<primary>Configure</primary>
<secondary>Krusader</secondary>
</indexterm>
<para>Konfigurator is &krusader;s configuration
center. When runnig &krusader;, use
<menuchoice>
<guimenu>Settings</guimenu>
<guimenuitem>Configure &krusader;</guimenuitem>
</menuchoice>, and it will start Konfigurator.
There you can modify the way &krusader; works
and customize it to your own needs. At any time, pressing the
<guibutton>Apply</guibutton> button applies the changes, pressing
<guibutton>Close</guibutton> closes Konfigurator, and pressing
<guibutton>Defaults</guibutton> re-applies &krusader;'s
"factory" settings. Konfigurator is divided into pages, each
containing items related to that page. For some changes to the
&GUI;, you have to close and restart
&krusader;.</para>
<note>
<para>Since &krusader;-1.80.0 the &keybindigs-lnk; and &main-toolbar-lnk;-&actions-toolbar-lnk;
have reiceived their own configuration windows and so they are not a part anymore of Konfigurator,
you can configure them now via the &settingsmenu-lnk;.</para>

<para>The following options determine basic aspects of
operation:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
<guilabel>Delete files/Move to trash</guilabel>: when
&krusader; deletes files it can either 'really'
delete them or move them to the trash folder, thereby
making them available via &kde;'s trash.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<guilabel>Use mimetype magic</guilabel>: mime type magic is
a mechanism which allows &krusader; to inspect
the files in the panels and determine their type even if
the file has no identifying extension. For example, if you
take an image file - 'image1.jpg' - and rename it to
'image1', &krusader; will still know it's an
image file and work with it accordingly. However, this mode
of operation is slower (while refreshing the panel, or
changing directories), so try &krusader; with
and without mime type magic and decide what is best for

<para>
<guilabel>Preserve attributes for local copy/move

according to the source file depending on your
<link linkend="copying">permissions</link>.</para>

<listitem>

<guilabel>Automount filesystems</guilabel>: this

<filename class="directory">/mnt/cdrom</filename> (and
<filename class="directory">
/mnt/cdrom</filename> appears in
<filename class="directory">/etc/fstab</filename> as a
mount point), &krusader; will check if it
is mounted. If not, it will try and mount it for you
and then enter, so that you would see the contents of
your cdrom. Note, however, that &krusader;

&krusader; uses an icon cache, so it will not
have to reload icons that have been used before. Of
course, as the cache grows bigger, it can store more
icons and further speed operations, but the memory
footprint of &krusader; will become
bigger.</para>

<title>Archives</title>
<para>This page handles the way &krusader; works
with archives. In the
<guilabel>General</guilabel> section you will see a list of
archive formats. Some are checked and some are grayed-out. The
ones that are available (not grayed-out) are supported by
&krusader;. If you check them, &krusader;
will handle the archives transparently and let you open them as
folders; otherwise, &krusader; will attempt to
invoke an application which opens archives of that type. If a
certain archive is grayed-out, it means that
&krusader; could not find the appropriate executables
in the configured path. The next archives are supported: ace,
arj, bzip2, deb, gzip, iso, lha, rar, rpm, tar, zip and
7-zip.</para>

<para>If you have installed a certain archive application (let's
say
<command>arj</command>) and want &krusader; to know
about it, just click the
<guibutton>Auto Configure</guibutton> button.
&krusader; will search for all supported executables
and print a report listing the archive formats that can be
handled. If the operation was successful the new archive should
be available and checked.</para>

<para>The full path of the packagers is stored in the
&konfigdependencie-lnk; (&eg; to handle
ZIP archives, &krusader; needs the
<command>unzip</command> and

to manually configure the mimes to the protocols in the
&konfigprotocol-lnk;.</para>
<para>
<guilabel>Fine-Tuning</guilabel>

<listitem>
<para>
<guilabel>Allow moving into archives</guilabel>: this
option allows you to move files into an archive (as
opposed to just copying into the archive). The down side
is that if a power failure occurs during the process, the
files that were moved might already be deleted, but not
yet packed into the archive.
<note>
<para>If such a thing happens, the file(s) are NOT
LOST. They were actually moved into a subfolder in
&krusader;'s
<link linkend="konfig-general">temp directory</link>.
You can search the directory and recover your
files.</para>

this option automatically runs a test on a newly packed

<note>
<para>&krusader; may not be compatible with ACE despite our
best efforts. Unace uses closed source and contains
additional lines that make Unace get into infinite loop if
the stdin is redirected to somewhere else. It works in the
same manner as 'su', where you cannot enter the password only
from the stdin. &krusader; &gt;= 1-51
emulates the command line environment to enable co-operation
with Unace, but we have noticed that Unace always changes its
output format from release to release, making co-operation
almost impossible.</para>
