# The KDE User Interface library

### Version 3.4.1

This library provides standard user interface elements for use in KDE applications. If your KDE application has a GUI, you will almost certainly link to libkdeui.

Most applications with single or multiple toplevel widgets should use the KMainWindow class in this library, which automatically provides features like session management and simplified toolbar/menubar/statusbar creation.

A spell-checker library is also provided. KSpell offers easy access to International ISpell or ASpell (at the user's option) as well as a spell-checker GUI ("Add", "Replace", etc.).

You can use KSpell to automatically spell-check an ASCII file as well as to implement online spell-checking and to spell-check proprietary format and marked up (e.g. HTML, TeX) documents. The relevant methods for these three procedures are check(), checkWord(), and checkList(), respectively.

KSpellConfig holds configuration information about KSpell as well as acting as an options-setting dialog.

KSpell usually works asynchronously. If you do not need that, you should simply use KSpell::modalCheck(). It won't return until the passed string is processed or the spell checking canceled. During modal spell checking your GUI is still repainted, but the user may only interact with the KSpell dialog.
