Welcome to the KDE User Guide! Although this book is not yet complete and much of the information will need to be rewritten for the final version of KDE, I hope this preview version will be useful in answering some of the questions that a new KDE user may have.
This book includes a complete introduction, a guide to KDE installation, a description of the user interface, three practical examples on how to use KDE for daily work, and a description on how to customize the KDE desktop. Also included is a table of shortcuts and some tips & tricks.
The reference part containing detailed descriptions (not the introductions) to the base KDE software is outdated and will be rewritten from scratch. Also, the Tips & Tricks chapter needs more content.
I would also appreciate it if someone could keep an eye on the consistency of the
expressions used (e.g., telling me if I once again used X-Windows instead of
The X Window System). If someone volunteers to write an unwritten chapter or to
contribute changes/additional material, I would place his/her photo on
my desktop with a golden border :-).
Although this book is nice for the beginner, we need more in-depth documentation for the specific KDE applications. If you would like to contribute, please contact me immediately.
