+ * To implement KScript in your application you would use this class to interface with the scripting engine.
+ * There are currently a few implementations of script managers around but developers can implement their own custom
+ * interfaces with this class.
+ * @code
+ * class MyScript : public TQObject, public KScriptClientInterface {
+ * Q_OBJECT
+ * public:
+ *
+ * MyScript(TQObject *parent)
+ * {
+ * // Create your @ref KScriptInterface here.
+ * m_interface = KParts::ComponentFactory::createInstanceFromQuery<KScriptInterface>(
+ * "KScriptRunner/KScriptRunner", "([X-TDE-Script-Runner] == 'bash/shell')", this );
+ * }
+ *
+ * virtual ~KScriptAction()
+ * {
+ * delete m_interface;
+ * }
+ *
+ * signals:
+ * void error ( const TQString &msg );
+ * void warning ( const TQString &msg );
+ * void output ( const TQString &msg );
+ * void progress ( int percent );
+ * void done ( KScriptClientInterface::Result result, const TQVariant &returned );
+ *
+ * public slots:
+ * void activate(const TQVariant &args)
+ * {
+ * m_interface->run(parent(), args);
+ * }
+ *
+ * private:
+ *
+ * KScriptInterface *m_interface;
+ * };
+ * @endcode
+ * Things to note about this example are that it only handles a single script type and instance. You may wish to
+ * extend this.
