/**
 * \mainpage The KDEfx Library
 *
 * This library provides various classes related to image and pixmap
 * manipulation, a class that provides information about CPU support
 * for architecture specific features, as well as the base class for
 * the %KDE widget styles.
 *
 * The two graphical effects classes, KImageEffect and KPixmapEffect,
 * provide static methods for applying graphical effects to images and
 * pixmaps respectively. KImageEffect also provides highly optimized
 * methods for compositing images.
 *
 * A class that's related to those two is KPixmapSplitter, which is
 * used for calculating the positions of items in pixmaps with
 * multiple items arranged in rows and columns.
 * Another is KPixmap, which extends QPixmap with the capability to
 * ensure that a 256 color pixmap uses a specific system wide
 * palette.
 *
 * The KCPUInfo class provides a means for applications to obtain
 * information at runtime about processor support for certain
 * architecture extensions that are useful when processing images,
 * such as MMX, SSE, 3DNow! and AltiVec.
 *
 * KStyle is the base class for the %KDE widget styles. It simplifies
 * and extends the QStyle API in order to make style coding easier.
 * It also provides an internal menu transparency and drop shadow
 * engine, which means that all styles inheriting this class will
 * automatically support those features.
