-/**
- * @short Standard %KDE help menu with dialog boxes.
- *
- * This class provides the standard %KDE help menu with the default "about"
- * dialog boxes and help entry.
- *
- * This class is used in KMainWindow so
- * normally you don't need to use this class yourself. However, if you
- * need the help menu or any of its dialog boxes in your code that is
- * not subclassed from KMainWindow you should use this class.
- *
- * The usage is simple:
- *
- * \code
- * mHelpMenu = new KHelpMenu( this, <someText> );
- * kmenubar->insertItem(i18n("&Help"), mHelpMenu->menu() );
- * \endcode
- *
- * or if you just want to open a dialog box:
- *
- * \code
- * mHelpMenu = new KHelpMenu( this, <someText> );
- * connect( this, TQT_SIGNAL(someSignal()), mHelpMenu,TQT_SLOT(mHelpMenu->aboutKDE()));
- * \endcode
- *
- * IMPORTANT:
- * The first time you use KHelpMenu::menu(), a KPopupMenu object is
- * allocated. Only one object is created by the class so if you call
- * KHelpMenu::menu() twice or more, the same pointer is returned. The class
- * will destroy the popupmenu in the destructor so do not delete this
- * pointer yourself.
- *
- * The KHelpMenu object will be deleted when its parent is destroyed but you
- * can delete it yourself if you want. The code below will always work.
- *
- * \code
- * MyClass::~MyClass()
- * {
- * delete mHelpMenu;
- * }
- * \endcode
- *
- *
- * Using your own "about application" dialog box:
- *
- * The standard "about application" dialog box is quite simple. If you
- * need a dialog box with more functionality you must design that one
- * yourself. When you want to display the dialog you can choose one of
- * two methods. Common for both is that you must make a help menu object
- * with no text argument If the text is missing the default dialog box
- * will not be displayed:
- *
- * Example 1 Using showAboutApplication signal (preferred)
- * \code
- *
- * void MyClass::myFunc()
- * {
- * ..
- * KHelpMenu *helpMenu = new KHelpMenu( this );
- * connect( helpMenu, TQT_SIGNAL(showAboutApplication()),
- * this, TQT_SLOT(myDialogSlot()));
- * ..
- * }
- *
- * void MyClass::myDialogSlot()
- * {
- * <activate your custom dialog>
- * }
- * \endcode
- *
- *
- * Example 2 Old style - connecting directly to the menu entry.
- * \code
- *
- * void MyClass::myFunc()
- * {
- * KHelpMenu *helpMenu = new KHelpMenu( this );
- * KPopupMenu *help = mHelpMenu->menu();
- * help->connectItem( KHelpMenu::menuAboutApp, this, TQT_SLOT(myDialogSlot()) );
- * }
- *
- * void MyClass::myDialogSlot()
- * {
- * <activate your custom dialog>
- * }
- * \endcode
