6.2.4 KDE Components
This category holds advanced KDE options, such as the default application to open
when clicking a link.
The Component Chooser module handles basic tasks. You can change the default email
client, text editor, messenger, terminal, and Web browser. Whenever a KDE application
needs to start an application of these types, it always calls the default component
set here.
KDE uses File Associations to identify a file type and start an appropriate application.
Here, you can also choose which icon represents each file type and whether to show
files of a certain type in an embedded or a separate viewer.
The File Manager module configures the behavior of Konqueror as a file manager.
Here, define which fonts and font sizes to use, the path to your home directory, if previews
are allowed, and if quick copy and move actions are allowed.
In KDE Performance , you can optimize the performance of your KDE desktop.
An overview of all plug-ins of the KDE daemon is shown in Service Manager. This
module shows two different types: services invoked on start-up and services called on
demand. Normally do not change the settings of this module, because it is vital for
KDE.
In Session Manager, define how KDE handles sessions on login and shutdown. By
default, KDE remembers your previous session and restores the applications you were
using the next time you login. You can define different options here, such as excluding
individual applications from being restored.
Spell Checker lets you modify what spell checker to use, what types of errors to check
for, and the default dictionary to use. The KDE spell checking system (KSpell) provides
support for several spell checking utilities: the most commonly used are ASpell and
ISpell.
