/**
* @short KDE Configuration Management abstract base class
*
* This class forms the base for all %KDE configuration. It is an
* abstract base class, meaning that you cannot directly instantiate
* objects of this class. Either use KConfig (for usual %KDE
* configuration) or KSimpleConfig (for special needs as in ksamba), or
* even KSharedConfig (stores values in shared memory).
*
* All configuration entries are key, value pairs. Each entry also
* belongs to a specific group of related entries. All configuration
* entries that do not explicitly specify which group they are in are
* in a special group called the default group.
*
* If there is a $ character in an entry, KConfigBase tries to expand
* environment variable and uses its value instead of its name. You
* can avoid this feature by having two consecutive $ characters in
* your config file which get expanded to one.
*
* \note the '=' char is not allowed in keys and the ']' char is not allowed in
* a group name.

*
