Konqueror
- Check the Wikipedia page on Konqueror for handy information!
KIO
- KIO (KDE Input/Output [1]) are plugins in the Konqueror architecture that extends its capabilities well beyond those of other browsers and file managers.
- Information on KIO in Konqueror can be obtained from KDE KinfoCenter (manual here). It can be launched with the command kinfocenter. Check the Protocols section.
- Useful KIOs:
- fish
- Allows you to access another computer's files using the SEcure Shell (SSH) protocol. fish is supposedly faster than sftp.
- Syntax is fish://username@server/folder.
- sftp
- SFTP is a Secure file transfer protocol. sftp is an interactive file transfer program, similar to ftp, but it performs all operations over an encrypted ssh transport.
- Syntax is sftp://username@server/folder.
- smb
- The smb ioslave enables you to browse the shares of a Windows® (or Samba) network. It requires libsmbclient.
- Syntax is smb://a_workgroup, to list the hosts in a workgroup.
- Syntax is smb://the_host or smb:/a_workgroup/the_host to see the shares of a host.
- Syntax is smb://the_host/the_share or smb:/a_workgroup/the_host/the_share to access a share directly.
K3b
- To enable MP3 support, install MAD MP3 decoding library and K3b MAD MP3 decoder plugin.
