  <title>Foreword</title>

  <para>Welcome to &krusader;!</para>

  <para>
  Our aim is to give you a facile, intuitive tool that easily handles the most important tasks
  you perform on your computer each and every day: manage and process your files the way you want,
  and look great doing it!</para>

  <para>
  Whether you are a &Linux; expert or a novice, &krusader; makes routine file management tasks
  quick and accurate, allowing you to focus on the big picture, not command line syntax.
  This is especially helpful if you are new to xxNIX operating systems.
  To do just that, &krusader; wears a great looking &GUI;, supports drag n' drop and mimetypes
  (with or without magic!) - all you need to feel right at home using it, right from the start!</para>

  <para>
  &krusader; is packed with cool features, is fast, and handles &archives_lnk; transparently.
  In addition, &krusader; streamlines many complex file management tasks, reducing fatigue, errors,
  and distraction. Basically, &krusader; provides all the helpful features you've come to expect from
  other quality file management tools like &mc; and &tcmd;.
  But why reinvent the wheel, you ask? &krusader; is designed to integrate seamlessly with the
  &kde; Desktop, the desktop of choice for many programmers, network engineers, and other power users
  of &Linux;. With &krusader; even novice users can quickly access the power, convenience, and feature
  rich capabilities of the &kde; Desktop. &krusader; is open-source, free, and is released under the
  &gpl_lnk;, although we (the developers) still retain the copyright for the project, its name,
  and manage the project's continuing evolution.</para>

  <para>
  The &krusader; Project's mission is to create an "all-in-one" file manager, which will do all
  the ordinary things you'd expect from it, plus a lot more ... ;-)
  Since the principle behind &krusader; is based on the &ofm_url;, dual-pane filemanagers
  (&mc;, &nc;, &etc;), it is a given that &krusader; handles all the standard Copy, Move, Delete, &etc;
  file operations, but that is just the foundation!</para>

  <para>
  From the start, virtual filesystems became a main focus.
  Virtual filesystems (VFSs) are an abstracted layer over all kinds of archived information
  (ZIP files, &FTP; servers, TAR archives, NFS filesystems, SAMBA shares, ISO cd/dvd images,
  RPM catalogs, &etc;), which allows the user to access all the information in these divergent
  types of filesystems transparently - just like entering an ordinary sub-directory!
  Files can then be copied or moved from and to (except ISO,rpm,tar.gz) these data sources/containers
  with the click of a mouse.
  &krusader; currently supports VFSs for all popular [and some specialized] types of archives
  (Zip, Tar, GZip, BZip2, Ace, Rar, Arj, Lha), configuration packages (RPM),
  and traditional remote filesystem types (&FTP;, NFS, Samba, FISH, SFTP).</para>

  <para>
  &krusader; also includes a built-in Mount-Manager &mountman_lnk;, which enables you to mount or unmount
  filesystems of all types with a single mouse click! Get usage and other property information easily,
  in a consistent and understandable format in seconds without moving your mouse!
  Ease and consistency are the goal.</para>

  <para>
  A &bookmark-manager_lnk; for local files/remote &URL;s and an &advanced_search_module_lnk; 
  are also included to speed the locating of needed files. &krusader; also allows you to 
  configure your Toolbars to provide a wide variety of additional functionality including 
  File Comparison (several user selectable methods available), Multiple File Rename, 
  and standard Terminal windows can be spawned with a single mouse click! 
  Need temporary Root access to your files?
  Simply "SU" within a Terminal window or click on &krusader;'s "Root Mode" to bring up a
  new &krusader; Manager as Root!</para>

  <para>
  Advanced users benefit greatly from being able to carry out clerical tasks effortlessly,
  without distraction from the real task at hand; a big help during those late night edit/compile sessions.
  Convenient shortcut keys enable you to navigate directory trees with ease, create multiple tabbed
  directory views simultaneously, and access fully functional history lists - all with a single mouse click!
  Due to efficient programming and low system overhead, &krusader; is perhaps the most responsive all around
  system management tool you can use to access the full potential of your computer using &kde;,
  or with any other standards compliant X Windows window manager. Although designed specifically for,
  and tightly integrated with, &kde;; &krusader; works equally well with Gnome, Enlightenment, WindowMaker,
  IceWM, BlackBox, Wiamea, XFCE, etc. -- when the &kde; libraries are installed.</para>

  <para>
  New extensibility is provided by the flexible &useractions_lnk;,
  a &krusader; innovation, that allows unlimited additional custom functionality to be added to suit the
  user's specific needs and wishes.
  We are planning to develop more modules in the near future, thereby enhancing &krusader; greatly.
  For information on what is proposed, approved, or remains to be completed look at the &todoforum_url;.</para>

  <para>
  No other program we know of, offers so many useful, easily accessible features in such an intuitive
  and simple format! Best of all, we listen, and implement good suggestions that are consonant with the
  &krusader; Project's goal: making &krusader; the very best File Manager available!</para>
  <para>We hope you'll enjoy it -- we do!</para>

  <title>Help &krusader;</title>

  <para>Here is your opportunity to &contribute_url; to the &krusader; project.
  There are things that need to be done, but can't be done by us.
  If you feel you can help, don't hesitate to contact us.
  Thanks!</para>

  <para><emphasis role="bold">Documentation</emphasis></para>

        documentation up to date.</para>

  <para><emphasis role="bold">&krusader; extra's</emphasis></para>
  <para>Upload your favorite configurations/extensions/plugins at &kde_files_url;,
        so that they become available for the &krusader; community.
        Maybe they will be shipped with &krusader; at the next release :-))
        It features 
        <ulink url="http://www.kde-files.org/index.php?xcontentmode=660">Keymaps</ulink>, 
        <ulink url="http://www.kde-files.org/index.php?xcontentmode=661">Colormaps</ulink>,

  </para>

  <para><emphasis role="bold">Spread the Word &krusader;</emphasis></para>

        Write articles and reviews for internet or print publications. 
        Encourage your friends to give &krusader; a try. 
        Participate in forums to help others in the community.</para>

  <para><emphasis role="bold">Translations</emphasis></para>
  <para>&krusader; is available in many languages, but usually several translations do need an update 
        and new untranslated languages are always welcome, please read the &i18n_page_url; .
        Even when there is already a translator for your native language, it is always helpful to
        have a second or third translator &eg; for proofreading the translation.
        Sometimes, the regular translator is not available when a translation update is needed (studies, holyday, ...).
        Please contact the translator for your native language; he will appreciate very much that you will
        offer some help. Any translation (even partial translations) are accepted by the &krusader;-Krew at
        any time (feature freeze or not).</para>

  <para><emphasis role="bold">Donations</emphasis></para>
  <para>Actually, we hadn't considered donations, until users asked us for a way to &donate_url; to the project.
        &krusader; is and always will be free, in all the terms of the GNU Public License. 
        </para>

  <para><emphasis role="bold">UserActions</emphasis></para>
  <para>Krusader comes with a nice set of &useractions_lnk; , 
        providing simple and advanced features of all sorts.
        If you have made a useful User action, please post it in the  &useractionsforum_url;
        we are collecting UserActions on our website, the "best ones" will be shipped with Krusader.
        Thanks!</para>

  <para><emphasis role="bold">Packagers</emphasis></para>
  <para>We are always in need of packagers for different distro rpm's, deb's, etc. 
        All help is welcome.</para>


  <para><emphasis role="bold">Users feedback for the &krusader; &MacOS; X port</emphasis></para>
  <para>Krusader is <link linkend="mac-port">ported</link> to &macosx_download_url; with &fink_url; 
        and &kde;libs, the port is maintained by &bodo_tasche_url;, all feedback is welcome.</para>

  <para><emphasis role="bold">Porting &krusader; to &Windows;</emphasis></para>
  <para>&krusader; is written using &Qt; as well as &kde;libs. 
        As long as &kde;libs does not run on &Windows;, porting &krusader; is not an option. 
        However, we do believe, that once &Qt;4-GPL is released, efforts will be made
        to port &kde;libs to &Windows;, and if that happens, we're in business
        and then we need a maintainer for porting &krusader; to &Windows;.</para>

  <para><emphasis role="bold">FAQ</emphasis></para>
  <para>If you have a question that is missing in the &faq_lnk;, we would like to hear it.</para>

  <para><link linkend="faqg_wish_patch">Feedback</link>,
  <link linkend="faqg_bug_report">Bug reports</link>, patches, &etc; are always welcome!
  An open source project's greatest strength is derived from getting user feedback.
