-/**
- * This class implements a very simple IPC mechanism for KDE. You can send
- * a message of a predefined type to either a specific application, or to all
- * KDE application on the current display. The message can carry one integer of
- * data.
- *
- * KIPC is mainly used in KDE for sending "Change Messages", i.e. a message to
- * all KDE apps that a certain setting (the font, for example) has changed.
- * For anything more complex it is recommended to use DCOP -- the Desktop
- * Communications Protocol.
- *
- * Messages with id code < 32 are called "System Messages". These are
- * directly handled by KApplication. Examples are: PaletteChanged and
- * StyleChanged. Messages with id code >= 32 are user messages. KApplication
- * emits the signal kipcMessage(id,arg) for each user message it receives.
- *
- * KIPC is implemented using X11 ClientMessage events.
- *
- * @see KApplication::kipcMessage()
