These docs have been partially complete for years, but not always available or easy to find. Since around 2002 little spurts of effort on Kommander have produced dramtic results. Kommander is a new approach to development and there have been modifications in approach and features. Consequently much of this documentation is out of date, however still useful due to legacy support. Please refer to our web site at http://kommander.kdewebdev.org for up to date information, news on KDE4 development, new tools, plugins, tips and tutorials.
Kommander is a set of tools that allow you to create dynamic GUI windows that has been used as a front end for command line programs, database front ends, simple program extentions and much more. The best part of it all? You aren't required to write a single line of code! Okay, that was old text... You can actually use the function browser and even with the new parser write almost none of the code. The inherent difference between Kommander and other GUI scripting tools is that Kommander doesn't care about how the window gets drawn. Kommander was designed from the GUI down to the language elements and can embrace multiple languages. Kommander does not use scripting to draw a window on the screen like other GUI scripting tools. As Kommander matures it will expose all it's internals to any scripting language people want to enable. We welcome anyone wishing to enhance support for any scripting language.
