/**
 * @short A carddeck selection dialog for card games.
 *
 * The KCardDialog provides a dialog for interactive carddeck selection.
 * It gives cardgames an easy to use interface to select front and
 * back of the card sets. As card sets the KDE default cardsets are
 * offered as well as used specified ones.
 *
 * In most cases, the simplest
 * use of this class is the static method KCardDialog::getCardDeck,
 * which pops up the dialog, allows the user to select a carddeck, and
 * returns when the dialog is closed. Only if you really need some specific
 * behaviour or if you overwrite the dialog you need all the other access
 * functions.
 *
 * Example:
 *
 * \code
 *      TQString deck,card;
 *      int result = KCardDialog::getCardDeck(deck,card );
 *      if ( result == KCardDialog::Accepted )
 *            ...
 * \endcode
 *
 * Here you can see a card dialog in action
 * @image html "kcarddialog.png" KCarddialog
 *
 * KCardDialog::getCardDeck takes a lot of different parameters which are
 * probably very useful. You can e.g. use the parameters randomDeck and
 * randomCardDir to give the end-user the ability to choose a random
 * deck/carddir. You have to save the value of those parameters in your config
 * file - that's why the parameters are needed. 
 *
 * You can also provide a TDEConfig pointer (usually kapp->config()). This
 * pointer is used to store information about the dialog in an own group
 * ("KCardDailog"). 
 * So you can just ignore the randomCardDir and randomDeck
 * values and call KCardDialog::getConfigCardDeck instead. The only reson
 * for this function is to read a previously written configuration and give you
 * the information about it. This way you don't have to save any configuration
 * on your own - KCardDialog does this for you.
 *
 * Another Parameter for KCardDialog::getCardDeck is scale. This pointer
 * to a double variable contains the scaling factor the user has chosen in the
 * dialog (the scale box won't be shown if you don't provide this parameter).
 * You might want to check out TQPixmap::xFrom which gives you access to
 * scaling. You can e.g. use
 * \code
 * TQWMatrix m;
 * m.scale(s,s);
 * pixmap.xForm(m);
 * \endcode
 * to scale your pixmap.
