+ * @short Class for handling preferences settings for an application.
+ * @author Cornelius Schumacher
+ * @see KConfigSkeletonItem
+ *
+ * This class provides an interface to preferences settings. Preferences items
+ * can be registered by the addItem() function corresponding to the data type of
+ * the seetting. KConfigSkeleton then handles reading and writing of config files and
+ * setting of default values.
+ *
+ * Normally you will subclass KConfigSkeleton, add data members for the preferences
+ * settings and register the members in the constructor of the subclass.
+ *
+ * Example:
+ * \code
+ * class MyPrefs : public KConfigSkeleton
+ * {
+ * public:
+ * MyPrefs()
+ * {
+ * setCurrentGroup("MyGroup");
+ * addItemBool("MySetting1",mMyBool,false);
+ * addItemColor("MySetting2",mMyColor,TQColor(1,2,3));
+ *
+ * setCurrentGroup("MyOtherGroup");
+ * addItemFont("MySetting3",mMyFont,TQFont("helvetica",12));
+ * }
+ *
+ * bool mMyBool;
+ * TQColor mMyColor;
+ * TQFont mMyFont;
+ * }
+ * \endcode
+ *
+ * It might be convenient in many cases to make this subclass of KConfigSkeleton a
+ * singleton for global access from all over the application without passing
+ * references to the KConfigSkeleton object around.
+ *
+ * You can write the data to the configuration file by calling @ref writeConfig()
+ * and read the data from the configuration file by calling @ref readConfig().
+ *
+ * If you have items, which are not covered by the existing addItem() functions
+ * you can add customized code for reading, writing and default setting by
+ * implementing the functions @ref usrUseDefaults(), @ref usrReadConfig() and
+ * @ref usrWriteConfig().
+ *
+ * Internally preferences settings are stored in instances of subclasses of
+ * @ref KConfigSkeletonItem. You can also add KConfigSkeletonItem subclasses
+ * for your own types and call the generic @ref addItem() to register them.
+ *
+ * In many cases you don't have to write the specific KConfigSkeleton
+ * subclasses yourself, but you can use \ref kconfig_compiler to automatically
+ * generate the C++ code from an XML description of the configuration options.
