They existed in KDE 3.1, at least. + +As a bonus, on top of saving the stuff with KEMailSettings it tries +also to save the realname to /etc/passwd. This is done via chfn, wrapped +in ChfnProcess, chfnprocess.h - which is the place to ifdef/modify so +other systems/ychfn/whatever works. +/etc/passwd is not the primary goal, the focus is on KDE's settings. The KCM +tries to hide the implementation differences and play nice with the +user - keep that in mind. + +The "face" term is rather scary.. For example I don't think the user immediately +associate to the login image when a phrase such as this is thrown in the face: +"Your administrator has disallowed changing your face". Keep it in mind.. + +Some information which was available in userinfo is left out - the home +folder and shell info. A typical user is not interested in the info nor +knows what it means. And the advanced users already knows it. + +If further information is added, think twice if it should not be +added in a "Details..." dialog - is it useful for the majority or not? +The SMTP setting as well as UID should be moved to that dialog too, IMO. + -- cgit v1.2.1
