&kommander; is a set of tools that allow you to create dynamic &GUI; windows that has been used as a front end for command line programs, database front ends, simple program extentions and much more. The best part of it all? You aren't required to write a single line of code! Okay, that was old text... You can actually use the function browser and even with the new parser write almost none of the code. The inherent difference between &kommander; and other &GUI; scripting tools is that &kommander; doesn't care about how the window gets drawn. &kommander; was designed from the GUI down to the language elements and can embrace multiple languages. &kommander; does not use scripting to draw a window on the screen like other &GUI; scripting tools. As Kommander matures it will expose all it's internals to any scripting language people want to enable. We welcome anyone wishing to enhance support for any scripting language.
These examples reflect the most recent development state of &kommander;. In its current state &kommander; has few limitations for developing small to medium applications. It certainly is not suitable for building a KWord clone, but for a simple editor, database frontend, GUI for commandline programs or any application in the spirit of Unix/Linux small applications it is a good choice. The examples presented here are intended to show the potential as well as how to work around limitations. There are some useful tricks included in these if you want to do a more capable small application with &kommander;. Remember &kommander; is not intended to do everything, but to do most things. For this concession you should be able to build something in &kommander; faster than other alternatives ad add GUI to scripting languages not otherwise supported in KDE.

&kommander; can be used with databases and has an optional <ulink url="http://kommander.kdewebdev.org/releases.php#plugins">database plugin</ulink>. One shortcoming is not being able to store key/value pairs in the ComboBox. An ingenious trick was realized for this. It requires only that the content of the ComboBox not be changed unless it is done using the arrays that go with it. As this is commonly used with SQL in small data sets it's quite fast even to reload the whole Combobox. The inherent problem is that &kommander; does not have internally indexed arrays by default. This is compounded by the fact that to accommodate shell commands that return lines separated by newlines &kommander;'s array functions will load what is effectively an array of keys. Such an array can only be accessed with a foreach loop. This is the reason new indexed array functions were added. It is important to remember that these arrays are not self maintaining, but their insert and delete functions will help you.

Getting back to the ComboBox, it will return selected text, but it also will return the current index. It does rigidly maintain a contiguous zero based array. That's the key. We loop through a data set with a zero based index counter and create two arrays, as &kommander; also cannot create arrays of arrays. It can however use an array value to represent a key just like any value could. .If you look at the included dialog the code actually managing this is in <quote>ScriptObject36</quote>. We will extract the key code here.

<div align="center"><h3>Could Quanta die without your support?</h3></div>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We'd like to think not! But from February 2001 to June 2002 there was very little activity and many months with no work done at all. This came about because of cash flow problems which led to the original developers leaving to do a commercial project. The fact remains that our most productive volunteer developers, as much as we think they're wonderful, go long periods where they just can't make time to code on the project. We estimate our active users number well over a million, yet we have only a few dozen people a year supporting the project. In fact 3-4 people account for over half of our current support. Clearly the actions of a few people make a huge difference, and yours can make a difference too.

The Node class handle the pointers to the parent, next, previous and first child Node. *Each* Node has a valid pointer to a Tag. The Tag takes care to remember all the information concerning the Tag itself, like the attributes, the type, etc...)
One QTag per Element is created from the .tag files when Quanta is started. Each QTag contains all the DTD information about the Tag. E.g. the "IMG" Qtag says that it is a single Tag, and what are its attributes. You can get a QTag with QuantaCommon::tagFromDTD, but don't delete the QTag!
Now to khtml. The class KHTMLPart is the HTML renderer widget of konqueror. It internally works with a Node Tree (another? Yep!) but these Nodes are real DOM::Nodes. (From now, I will call it the DOM::Node tree) Each of the DOM Nodes is khtml-internally linked to a rendering Node i.e. a change made to one DOM::Node will update the HTML rendering cf /path/to/kde/include/dom/*.h and also in the kdelibs cvs module, cf the nice kdelibs/khtml/DESIGN.html. WARNING about DOM::Nodes, they are just interfaces!!
