* This class is the preferred way of loading RSS files. Usage is very

* \code
* Loader *loader = Loader::create();
* connect(loader, TQT_SIGNAL(loadingComplete(Loader *, Document, Status)),
* this, TQT_SLOT(slotLoadingComplete(Loader *, Document, Status)));
* loader->loadFrom("http://www.blah.org/foobar.rdf", new FileRetriever);
* \endcode
*
* This creates a Loader object, connects it's loadingComplete() signal to
* your custom slot and then makes it load the file
* 'http://www.blah.org/foobar.rdf' using the FileRetriever. You could've
* done something like this as well:
*
* \code
* // create the Loader, connect it's signal...
* loader->loadFrom("/home/myself/some-script.py", new OutputRetriever);
* \endcode
*
* That'd make the Loader use another algorithm for retrieving the RSS data;
* 'OutputRetriever' will make it execute the script
* '/home/myself/some-script.py' and assume whatever that script prints to
* stdout is RSS markup. This is e.g. handy for conversion scripts, which
* download a HTML file and convert it's contents into RSS markup.
*
* No matter what kind of retrieval algorithm you employ, your
* 'slotLoadingComplete' method might look like this:
*
* \code
* void MyClass::slotLoadingComplete(Loader *loader, Document doc, Status status)
* {
* // Note that Loader::~Loader() is private, so you cannot delete Loader instances.
* // You don't need to do that anyway since Loader instances delete themselves.
*
* if (status != RSS::Success)
* return;
*
* TQString title = doc.title();
* // do whatever you want with the information.
* }
* \endcode
*
* \note You have to create a copy of the passed Document instance in
* case you want/need to use it after the slot attached to the
* loadingComplete signal goes out of scope. This is e.g. the case if you
* intend to call getPixmap() on Document::image()!
