/** @mainpage The KDE Workspace
This is where the components that are only used when KDE is providing
a complete desktop environment live.
Of particular importance are <a href="kwin/html/index.html">KWin</a>, the
KDE window manager, and <a href="plasma/html/index.html">Plasma</a>, which
provides the workspace interface.
If you are developing Plasma plugins (Plasmoids), you are probably interested
in the <a href="libs/plasma/html/index.html">libplasma documentation</a>.
Other components that reside here are:
- KCheckPass, a simple program for checking whether a password is correct
- KCMInit, which allows KDE control modules to do initialization at the
start of a KDE session, for example setting the keyboard repeat rate
- KDM, the login manager for KDE
- KHotKeys, a daemon that allows actions to be performed when certain
combinations of keys are pressed
- Klipper, the KDE clipboard manager
- KMenuEdit, the manager for the desktop menu (the K menu)
- KRunner, which provides the launch ("run command") dialog, screensaver
activation and screen locking and control of application startup notification
- KScreenSaver, which provides pretty screensavers and is launched by
KRunner
- KSMServer, the KDE session manager
- KSplash, the KDE splashscreen program
- KStartupConfig, which allows configuration files to be used in startkde
without linking to KDE libraries
- KTip, that little window that pops up when you start KDE with the Tip of
the Day
- SystemSettings, the KDE configuration program
- <a href="../solid/html/index.html">Various Solid components</a> useful in a
KDE session
- StartKDE, the script that starts a KDE session
- Some wallpapers, and a basic K menu setup
@warning The applications and libraries in Workspace are only required to work
with X11. They will not be used on Windows or MacOS, or in other desktop
environments (such as GNOME). Applications should not depend on Workspace
unless they are a desktop component, such as a screensaver or a plasmoid.
