+ * This namespace provides a method for issuing events to a KNotifyServer
+ * call KNotifyClient::event("eventname"); to issue it.
+ * On installation, there should be a file called
+ * $KDEDIR/share/apps/appname/eventsrc which contains the events.
+ *
+ * The file looks like this:
+ * \code
+ * [!Global!]
+ * IconName=Filename (e.g. kdesktop, without any extension)
+ * Comment=FriendlyNameOfApp
+ *
+ * [eventname]
+ * Name=FriendlyNameOfEvent
+ * Comment=Description Of Event
+ * default_sound=filetoplay.wav
+ * default_logfile=logfile.txt
+ * default_commandline=command
+ * default_presentation=1
+ * ...
+ * \endcode
+ * default_presentation contains these ORed events:
+ * None=0, Sound=1, Messagebox=2, Logfile=4, Stderr=8, PassivePopup=16,
+ * Execute=32, Taskbar=64
+ *
+ * KNotify will search for sound files given with a relative path first in
+ * the application's sound directory (share/apps/Application Name/sounds), then in
+ * the KDE global sound directory (share/sounds).
+ *
+ * You can also use the "nopresentation" key, with any the presentations
+ * ORed. Those that are in that field will not appear in the kcontrol
+ * module. This was intended for software like KWin to not allow a window-opening
+ * that opens a window (e.g., allowing to disable KMessageBoxes from appearing)
+ * If the user edits the eventsrc file manually, it will appear. This only
+ * affects the KcmNotify.
+ *
+ * You can also use the following events, which are system controlled
+ * and do not need to be placed in your eventsrc:
+ *
+ *<ul>
+ * <li>cannotopenfile
+ * <li>notification
+ * <li>warning
+ * <li>fatalerror
+ * <li>catastrophe
+ *</ul>
+ *
+ * The events can be configured in an application using KNotifyDialog, which is part of KIO.
