There -are too many features of &konqueror; to describe here, so we will just -take an overview. For more details about what &konqueror; can -do, refer to the &konqueror; Handbook. - - - -Folders - -When you first open &konqueror; in file management mode, you can -see two panes: on the right is the folder view; on the left is the -sidebar. The folder view contains icons for -each item inside the current folder. These items can be -folders or files. Many file types can be previewed -without opening a new application to edit them in.Previews To preview a file, -hold the mouse cursor over the name of the file for about a second: a -popup window will appear, showing the contents of the file and other some -useful information, like file's size and which user owns the file. - -You can open any item by clicking on the icon for the -file. Folders will be opened in the same window; files will either be -opened in the appropriate program, or the file manager will ask you -what program to use. For instance, if do not have a word-processor set up to -open &Microsoft; Word documents, the file manager will -ask you what to do. - -You can go back to the last-opened folder by clicking on the -Back button or go up one folder by clicking -the Up button. - - - -The Navigation Panel (aka <quote>The Sidebar</quote>) - -Navigation Panel -Sidebar - - - - - -The &konqueror; sidebar - - -Navigating through the folders by using -the folder view can become impractical. The sidebar provides -shortcuts and special functions that make it easier to -find what you are searching for. - -On the left edge of the sidebar be several buttons, each - with a different icon, such as the following: - - - - - -Bookmarks - - -As &konqueror; (the file manager) also serves as a very powerful -web browser, it also has a bookmark functionality. Here you will find the -same structure as in your Bookmarks menu. - - - - -Devices - - -Next the sidebar provides a list of all known devices -on your computer. These devices can be either physical drives — -such as your hard disk, &CD-ROM; drive, or floppy disk drive — -or virtual drives — such as remote shares or hard disk partitions. - - - - -History - - -&konqueror; will remember the web pages you have visited and list them -either by date or alphabetically in a tree structure. You can select the -behavior by right clicking on the History item and -selecting Sort by. Left click on an item (⪚ -www.kde.org) and &konqueror; will show you the documents you have visited. Left -clicking on a document (⪚ index.html) will open -the web site in the folder view. -Right clicking on a history item, like www.kde.orgindex.html -, opens a slightly different popup menu: you will also find the -item New Window, which makes &konqueror; open the -site in a new window. - - - - -Home Directory - - -The Home Directory item is in the sidebar's navigation -panel. You will find your home directory as the first entry. Below you will -find all folders of your home directory. Left clicking on any -folder in this view opens the folder in the folder view. Alternatively, you can also -work with the folders' context menus, create subfolders, and so on. - - - - -Sidebar Media Player - - - - -Try dragging a music file (like MP3, Ogg, or -.wav files) -on the sidebar. The file will immediately be played. - - - - -Newsticker - - -Newsticker will display a customisable list of news sources. Right-click -either on the Configure button or on one of the -newssource buttons (e.g. TDE News, which is usually predefined) to add a new -newsticker source. - - - - -Network - - -Here you can browse the services provided by other computers on -the network. The &lisa;-Daemon has to be started in order to work -correctly. The network browser allows you to see a variety of services -provided by a computer. You can easily browse SMB -shares, &HTTP; sites, or transfer files via the secure FISH -layer. - - - - -Root Directory - - -Everything on a &UNIX;-based system is organized in a file -system tree. This tree must have a root and here it is. The -Root Directory function is like the -Home Directory function. The only difference is -that every folder is being displayed, not only your home -directory. - - - - -Services - - -This is somehow the "rest". Try browsing through the different -items. If an Audio &CD; is in your &CD; or DVD -drive you will be able to find everything on it and even more in the -Audio CD Browser item (you can even compress -audio files and save them on your hard drive with this -function). - - - - - - - -Icons - - -To select only one icon hold down the &Ctrl; key and click on the icon -you want to select. If you want to select more than one icon, hold -down &Ctrl; while you click on each of the items you want to select. -Once one or more icons are selected you can do what you want with -them. If you want to move or copy items, select them and then drag them -(with the left mouse button down) to the desired location. When -you release the mouse button a menu will come up offering you to -MoveMoving -Files, -CopyCopying -Files, or Link the -selected items. You can also Cancel your -action. - - -Many other actions can be applied to the selected items by -right-clicking on one of the selected items, and choosing the action -from the menu which appears. (The exact contents of this menu depend on the -type of files selected, so it is called a context menu). - - - -Links and Shortcuts - - -As already mentioned above you can link files or folders anywhere. It means -that the linked folder will appear and behave just like the original in -another location without consuming additional space on your harddrive. -So if you, for example, have a number of documents, and only a few are used -regularly, you can easily group them in a folder and create links in it. - - - - - -The Trash - -Trash -Recycle Bin - -Before a file is deleted in the &tde; file manager it will be -moved to the Trash folder to give you the -possibility of getting it back if you deleted it by accident. The -trash bin will show all deleted items. You can select the one to be -recovered and move it to its original place as described in . If you right click on the trash bin and select -Empty trash bin the files in it will be -deleted permanently. - - - -Related Information - -The &konqueror; Handbook -has much more information about the features available in -&konqueror;. - - - - - - -- cgit v1.2.1
