+/**
+ * The base class for control center modules.
+ *
+ * Starting from KDE 2.0, control center modules are realized as shared
+ * libraries that are loaded into the control center at runtime.
+ *
+ * The module in principle is a simple widget displaying the
+ * item to be changed. The module has a very small interface.
+ *
+ * All the necessary glue logic and the GUI bells and whistles
+ * are provided by the control center and must not concern
+ * the module author.
+ *
+ * To write a config module, you have to create a library
+ * that contains at one factory function like this:
+ *
+ * \code
+ * #include <kgenericfactory.h>
+ *
+ * typedef KGenericFactory<YourTDECModule, TQWidget> YourTDECModuleFactory;
+ * K_EXPORT_COMPONENT_FACTORY( yourLibName, YourTDECModuleFactory("name_of_the_po_file") );
+ * \endcode
+ *
+ * The parameter "name_of_the_po_file" has to correspond with the messages target
+ * that you created in your Makefile.am.
+ *
+ * See http://developer.kde.org/documentation/other/kcm_howto.html
+ * for more detailed documentation.
