Could you point me to some place where it describes what the "KDE way" is. > > > Please restore an option to disable this feature. You can disable this feature by adding the HOME directory to the list of exclude folders. It will be completely disabled. Or you know, since you know about mailing lists, you can surely edit a config file. -- Anyway, I'll be adding an explicit disable button again (if the translators allow me). Hell, maybe all file indexing should just be disabled by default. If I have to go through more emails of calling me an "ass" or "dictator", I might just quit. -- Vishesh Handa >> Visit http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-devel#unsub to unsubscribe <<
