Hi, I'm planning to merge the wikipedia search plugin into KDE for 4.4. The plugin is basically a MediaWiki search class, with its URL pointed to Wikipedia.
I'd like to make it more generic, though. What I envision is installing the plugin once, and then have one desktop file per service we want to query, the desktop file basically says "use this plugin, use that URL", so there's some kind of initial config attached to a plugin. Adding search for techbase or userbase (or any other mediawiki) would mean merely providing a .desktop file pointing to the URL of that particular MediaWiki instance. I *guess* it's possible, but don't really know where to start looking. The same pattern (generic .so, config in the .desktop file) can probably be applied to other things as well. What magic in .desktop files is needed for this? -- sebas http://www.kde.org | http://vizZzion.org | GPG Key ID: 9119 0EF9 _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
