The filters seem to work in a similar way: a capital letter makes the filter case-insensitive and no capital letters (all lower-case) makes it case sensitive.
In other words, the cases of search terms and filters work oppositely to how they should.
Is anyone else experiencing this? - May 22 2005

In kio-locate, the case sensitivity of terms and filters appear to be combined. I would like to be able to type "locate:searchterm /home/user/Directory" into the Konqueror location bar and have a case insensitive search for "searchterm" be made in the "/home/user/Directory" directory. Instead, the capital "D" in the filter turns the entire query into a case-sensitive search, even though "searchterm" is completely in lower case. A workaround would be to convert "/home/user/Directory" into lower-case, but that is hardly intuitive and it would not work if the search term contained any upper-case letters (since that would make the filters case-sensitive as well).
The solution, from what I can see, is to make the filters independent of the search term, much in the same way that grep is distinct from locate. - May 15 2005

The solution I found (for 0.4.0) is to edit the src/locater.cpp source file. Move down to line 53, which reads
m_process << "--ignore-case";
Change this to read:
m_process << "-i";
At least on Gentoo, there is no --ignore-case modifier for slocate. - May 14 2005

ps2pdf "%u" "`echo "%u" | sed -e 's/.ps/.pdf/g'`"
This version has some benefits over the one in the parent post and the original version. Firstly, it works with long filenames (the parent post doesn't).
Secondly, like the parent version it is totally automatic. There is no prompting for a filename; the original name is kept but the extension changes to pdf. Since we're in KDE, renaming the new file is easy (there's no need to prompt). This feature also allows many PDF files to be created at once. Just select as many .ps files as you want and run this service on them. Easy. - Mar 14 2005

OptiPNG is a (superior) replacement for (the seemingly unmaintained) Pngcrush. AdvanceCOMP is something completely different -- it converts the Ziv-Lempel compression to 7-Zip, thereby squeezing things even more.
Obviously nobody is forcing you to use these tools. If you don't have the patience to use these tools, don't use them. But it would be ridiculous to deny that they are capable of creating significantly smaller file sizes. They don't always (that depends on the properties of the file you are working on), but often they do. - Nov 08 2004

My initial hope was to display the advpng output in a terminal, but the "Terminal=true" option doesn't seem to work in service menus.
I'll see what I can do. - Nov 04 2004

1. Open the "File Associations" manager (either from the Konqueror preferences or from Kcontrol)
2. Select "All" -> "allfiles"
3. In the pane on the right, click "Add" and find KWrite in the application tree. Select it and click OK.
4. Click OK to save the file associations.
Now you can right-click any file and select KWrite from the "Open With" menu. If you set KWrite to be at the top of the list, it should automatically open the file if you middle-click it in Konqueror.
This is the way you are supposed to associate applications. Service menus are meant to be used for special functions/actions, not simple file associations. - Jun 27 2004

I can't guarantee it will work properly, though. Note that Kdiff3 cannot compare more than three files at once. - Jun 21 2004

I would suggest to the author that he/she submit Mivie seperately as a cursor theme. I'm sure that many people will love it. - Jun 20 2004

1. The cursors are far too big. Please have a smaller version (32x32 would be good).
2. It would be nice if they were more translucent, like the Whiteglass theme that comes with XFree86
3. How about having versions of the theme with different colours? You could have blue, red, green, etc. variants. - Jun 19 2004

While I'm on the topic, does anybody know where I can get a blue version of the Whiteglass/Redglass themes? - Jun 19 2004
