/**
 * @short KDE Configuration Management abstract base class
 *
 * This class forms the base for all %KDE configuration. It is an
 * abstract base class, meaning that you cannot directly instantiate
 * objects of this class. Either use TDEConfig (for usual %KDE
 * configuration) or KSimpleConfig (for special needs as in ksamba), or
 * even TDESharedConfig (stores values in shared memory).
 *
 * All configuration entries are key, value pairs.  Each entry also
 * belongs to a specific group of related entries.  All configuration
 * entries that do not explicitly specify which group they are in are
 * in a special group called the default group.
 *
 * If there is a $ character in an entry, TDEConfigBase tries to expand
 * environment variable and uses its value instead of its name. You
 * can avoid this feature by having two consecutive $ characters in
 * your config file which get expanded to one.
 *
 * \note the '=' char is not allowed in keys and the ']' char is not allowed in
 * a group name.

  * Careful programmers always set the group of a

  * and set it back to the old one of afterwards. This is usually
  * written as:
  * \code
  *
  * TQString oldgroup config->group();
  * config->setGroup( "TheGroupThatIWant" );
  * ...
  * config->writeEntry( "Blah", "Blubb" );
  *
  * config->setGroup( oldgroup );

  *
  * In order to facilitate this task, you can use
  * TDEConfigGroupSaver. Simply construct such an object ON THE STACK
  * when you want to switch to a new group. Then, when the object goes
  * out of scope, the group will automatically be restored. If you
  * want to use several different groups within a function or method,
  * you can still use TDEConfigGroupSaver: Simply enclose all work with
  * one group (including the creation of the TDEConfigGroupSaver object)
  * in one block.
  *
  * @deprecated This class is deprecated and will be removed in KDE 4.
  * TDEConfigGroup provides similar functionality in a more object oriented
  * way.
