-<H2>Static Member Functions</H2>
-<P>
-Static member functions are implemented as Python class functions.
-For example the C++ static member function
-<TT CLASS="LITERAL" >TQObject::connect()</TT>
-is called from Python as
-<TT CLASS="LITERAL">TQObject.connect()</TT> or
-<TT CLASS="LITERAL">self.connect()</TT>
-if called from a sub-class of
-<TT CLASS="LITERAL">TQObject</TT>.
-</P>
-<h2>None and NULL</h2>
-<P>Throughout the bindings, the
-<TT CLASS="LITERAL">None</TT>
-value can be specified wherever
-<TT CLASS="LITERAL">NULL</TT>
-is acceptable to the underlying C++ code.</P>
-<P >Equally,
-<TT CLASS="LITERAL">NULL</TT>
-is converted to
-<TT CLASS="LITERAL">None</TT>
-whenever it is returned by the underlying C++ code
-</P>

-<h2>Enumerated Types</H2>
-<P>
-Enumerated types are implemented as a set of simple variables corresponding to
-the separate enumerated values.
-</P>
-<P>
-When using an enumerated value the name of the class (or a sub-class) in which
-the enumerated type was defined in must be included. For example:

-<H2>Namespaces</H2>
-<P>
-The C++ code in KDE makes extensive use of namespaces (especially in the kio, kjs,
-khtml, kfile, and kparts modules). In PyKDE, namespaces are treated as a "superclass".
-For example, "from kparts import KParts" will import the KParts namespace and all
-its members. To reference a class in the namespace, use &lt;namespace name&gt;..&lt;classname&gt;,
-for example, KParts.ReadOnlyPart. It isn't necessary to import the &lt;classname&gt; (ReadOnlyPart
-in the example).
-</P>
-<h2>Return and Argument Types</h2>
-<p>
-Some return types or argument types may be different than those in the C++ KDE libs. This is
-done for convenience (eg returning/taking Python lists or dicts), because arguments are
-scalar (non-object) types passed by reference (eg int*, bool&), or because there is no
-way to express the C++ type in Python (eg template types)
-</p>
-<p>
-Please check the <a href="docs.html">Class Reference Docs</a> which list all classes
-and methods in Python format.

-<h2>Version Information</h2><h4><i>New in PyKDE-3.11</i></h4>

-PyKDE provides methods for determining both the KDE version being run and the PyKDE
-version being run. The version methods are:

-<h2>Abstract Classes and Pure Virtual Methods</h2>
-<P>
-C++ allows the use of abstract classes. Abstract classes cannot be used in programs
-(instantiated) directly; their only purpose is to serve as a base class from which
-programmers can derive other classes that can be used.
-</P>
-<P>
-An abstract class in C++ is defined as a class that has one or more 'pure virtual'
-methods. These can be identified in the C++ header files or C++ docs as methods set
-equal to 0, for example:
-</P>
-<TABLE BORDER="0" BGCOLOR="#E0E0E0" WIDTH="100%">
-<TR>
-<TD>
-<PRE CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING">
-virtual int somePureVirtualMethod (int a) = 0;
-</PRE>
-</TD>
-</TR>
-</TABLE>
-<P>
-To derive a useful class from the abstract class, the programmer has to write methods
-to overload each of the pure virtual methods. Following a suggestion on the mailing
-list, the docs attempt to flag all abstract classes and identify the pure virtual
-methods which must be overloaded in the derived class. Derived classes can be created
-in Python by writing Python methods to overload the pure virtual methods - no C++ code
-is required.
-</P>
