+<span class="application">KDiff3</span> is a KPart. Currently it implements the KParts::ReadOnlyPart-interface.
+</p><p>
+It's main use is as difference-viewer in KDevelop. KDevelop always starts the
+internal difference viewer first. To invoke <span class="application">KDiff3</span> press the right mouse button
+on the difference viewer window and select "Show in KDiff3Part" from the contextmenu.
+</p><p>
+<span class="application">KDiff3</span> normally requires two complete files as input. When used as part <span class="application">KDiff3</span>
+will assume that the inputfile is a patch-file in the unified format. <span class="application">KDiff3</span>
+then retrieves the original filenames from the patch-file. At least one of
+the two files must be available. <span class="application">KDiff3</span> will then invoke <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span><strong class="command">patch</strong></span></span> to
+recreate the second file.
+</p><p>
+In Konqueror you can select a patch-file and select "Preview in"-"KDiff3Part" from
+the contextmenu. Be aware that this won't work if none of the original files are
+available, and it is not reliable if the original file(s) have changed since the
+patch-file was generated.
+</p><p>
+When run as a part <span class="application">KDiff3</span> only provides the a two-file-diff, a very small toolbar
+and menu. Merging or directory-comparison are not supported then.
