<title>&kde; Visual Dictionary of terms</title>

<para>This project was started to help unify the vocabulary used in &kde; documentation.</para>

<para>We provide this for you here as an aid to learning your way around the &kde; Graphical User Interface. These names have been standardised within &kde; documentation, so that you will always find interface items referred to in the same way.</para>

<tip><para>The term <quote>Widget</quote> refers to the basic building block of a computer program's interface.</para>
<para>Each widget operates in a similar manner each time it is used, but the effect that the widget has depends on its place within the program.</para></tip>

<!-- TODO:
Widgets to add: combo buttons (eg, the 'back' button in konq), popup 
menus/context menus, passive popups, sidebar buttons?

Perhaps list deprecated names, for search/replace purposes?
-->
<sect1 id="widget-table">
<title>Listing of Common &kde; Widgets</title>
<para>Currently, this guide consists of a table of the names of the graphical elements often found in &kde; documentation, and an example of each one. </para>
<para>Our hope, eventually, is to make this a much more complete document, which will take you on a visual tour of &kde;.</para>
