+ * @ingroup settings
+ * @ingroup plugin
+ * @short Convenience TDECModule for creating a plugins config page.
+ *
+ * This class makes it very easy to create a plugins configuration page to your
+ * program. All you need to do is create a class that is derived from
+ * PluginPage and add the appropriate plugin infos to the KPluginSelector.
+ * This is done using the pluginSelector() method:
+ * \code
+ * typedef KGenericFactory<MyAppPluginConfig, TQWidget> MyAppPluginConfigFactory;
+ * K_EXPORT_COMPONENT_FACTORY( kcm_myapppluginconfig, MyAppPluginConfigFactory( "kcm_myapppluginconfig" ) );
+ *
+ * MyAppPluginConfig( TQWidget * parent, const char *, const TQStringList & args )
+ * : PluginPage( MyAppPluginConfigFactory::instance(), parent, args )
+ * {
+ * pluginSelector()->addPlugins( TDEGlobal::instance()->instanceName(), i18n( "General Plugins" ), "General" );
+ * pluginSelector()->addPlugins( TDEGlobal::instance()->instanceName(), i18n( "Effects" ), "Effects" );
+ * }
+ * \endcode
+ *
+ * All that remains to be done is to create the appropriate .desktop file
+ * \verbatim
