Dear documentation writers, As part of the KDE Frameworks 5 effort (restructuring kdelibs), I stumbled upon the tool called "genshortcutents", which sits next to meinproc in kdelibs/kdoctools, and is documented as: "Generates DocBook entities for key shortcuts of standard actions".
It seems that the idea (when Frerich committed it, in KDE3 times) was to generate a kde-standards-accels.entities file, and install it as part of kdelibs. However this broke with KDE 4.0 (when switching from unsermake to cmake), and the fact that nobody fixed it since then, would seem to indicate that nobody is actually using these entities. The reason this is showing up now is that we're looking at replacing (long term) KStandardShortcut with the Qt QKeySequence standard accel, so we're wondering about the impact on that code. But if it's unused.... can we get rid of it, rather than have to worry about porting it ? -- David Faure, faure at kde.org, http://www.davidfaure.fr Sponsored by BlueSystems and KDAB to work on KDE Frameworks
