While doing this, &kbookmarkmerger; keeps track of which files were +merged in a previous run already, so no bookmark will get installed to the +user's bookmarks more than once. In case &kde; is running while +&kbookmarkmerger; is executed, the &kde; bookmark subsystem will be informed +of any changes to the user's bookmarks, so that all applications accessing +that information (&ie; &konqueror;) will pick the changes up instantly.</para> + +<para>The traditionally used approach to achieve something like this was to +use carefully crafted skeleton home directories when creating a new user +account, to provide the user with a standard set of bookmarks. The problem +with this approach is that after the user account has been created, no new +bookmarks can be propagated.</para> + +<para>This mechanism is useful for system administrators who want to propagate +a bookmark pointing to a certain document (for instance, important notes about +the system) to all users. Distributors might find it useful as well, for +instance by augmenting the software packages they supply with bookmark files +which &kbookmarkmerger; merges into the user's bookmark list when the +package is installed. That way, documentation shipped with a software package +is easily and visibly accessible right after the package has been +installed.</para> + +<para>The only parameter required by &kbookmarkmerger; is the name of a +directory which shall be scanned for bookmark files. All files in the given +directory will be considered for being merged into the user's setup. The +files in the given directory should be valid <acronym>XBEL</acronym> +files.</para> +</refsect1> + +<refsect1> +<title>See Also</title> +<para><ulink url="help:/konqueror/index.html">&konqueror; manual</ulink></para> +</refsect1> + +<refsect1> +<title>Examples</title> +<screen>joe@hal9000:~> <command>kbookmarkmerger <filename>/usr/local/extra-bookmarks</filename></command></screen> +<para>Merges all bookmark files stored in +<filename>/usr/local/extra-bookmarks</filename> into joe's list of +bookmarks.</para> +</refsect1> + +<refsect1> +<title>Standards</title> +<variablelist> +<varlistentry><term/><listitem><para> + <ulink url="http://pyxml.sourceforge.net/topics/xbel/"><acronym>XBEL</acronym> specification</ulink> +</para></listitem></varlistentry> +</variablelist> +</refsect1> + +<refsect1> +<title>Restrictions</title> +<para>When determining whether a given bookmark file has been merged into the +user's bookmarks already or not, &kbookmarkmerger; merely looks at the +filename of the bookmark file - the contents are not checked at all.
