+/*!
+ \class TQSettings
+ \brief The TQSettings class provides persistent platform-independent application settings.
+
+ \ingroup io
+ \ingroup misc
+ \mainclass
+
+ On Unix systems, TQSettings uses text files to store settings. On Windows
+ systems, TQSettings uses the system registry. On Mac OS X, TQSettings uses
+ the Carbon preferences API.
+
+ Each setting comprises an identifying key and the data associated with
+ the key. A key is a unicode string which consists of \e two or more
+ subkeys. A subkey is a slash, '/', followed by one or more unicode
+ characters (excluding slashes, newlines, carriage returns and equals,
+ '=', signs). The associated data, called the entry or value, may be a
+ boolean, an integer, a double, a string or a list of strings. Entry
+ strings may contain any unicode characters.
+
+ If you want to save and restore the entire desktop's settings, i.e.
+ which applications are running, use TQSettings to save the settings
+ for each individual application and TQSessionManager to save the
+ desktop's session.
+
+ Example settings:
+ \code
+ /MyCompany/MyApplication/background color
+ /MyCompany/MyApplication/foreground color
+ /MyCompany/MyApplication/geometry/x
+ /MyCompany/MyApplication/geometry/y
+ /MyCompany/MyApplication/geometry/width
+ /MyCompany/MyApplication/geometry/height
+ /MyCompany/MyApplication/recent files/1
+ /MyCompany/MyApplication/recent files/2
+ /MyCompany/MyApplication/recent files/3
+ \endcode
+ Each line above is a complete key, made up of subkeys.
+
+ A typical usage pattern for reading settings at application
+ startup:
+ \code
+ TQSettings settings;
+ settings.setPath( "MyCompany.com", "MyApplication" );
+
+ TQString bgColor = settings.readEntry( "/colors/background", "white" );
+ int width = settings.readNumEntry( "/geometry/width", 640 );
+ // ...
+ \endcode
+
+ A typical usage pattern for saving settings at application exit or
+ 'save preferences':
+ \code
+ TQSettings settings;
+ settings.setPath( "MyCompany.com", "MyApplication" );
+
+ settings.writeEntry( "/colors/background", bgColor );
+ settings.writeEntry( "/geometry/width", width );
+ // ...
+ \endcode
+
+ A key prefix can be prepended to all keys using beginGroup(). The
+ application of the prefix is stopped using endGroup(). For
+ example:
+ \code
+ TQSettings settings;
+
+ settings.beginGroup( "/MainWindow" );
+ settings.beginGroup( "/Geometry" );
+ int x = settings.readEntry( "/x" );
+ // ...
+ settings.endGroup();
+ settings.beginGroup( "/Toolbars" );
+ // ...
+ settings.endGroup();
+ settings.endGroup();
+ \endcode
+
+ You can get a list of entry-holding keys by calling entryList(), and
+ a list of key-holding keys using subkeyList().
+
+ \code
+ TQStringList keys = settings.entryList( "/MyApplication" );
+ // keys contains 'background color' and 'foreground color'.
+
+ TQStringList keys = settings.entryList( "/MyApplication/recent files" );
+ // keys contains '1', '2' and '3'.
+
+ TQStringList subkeys = settings.subkeyList( "/MyApplication" );
+ // subkeys contains 'geometry' and 'recent files'
+
+ TQStringList subkeys = settings.subkeyList( "/MyApplication/recent files" );
+ // subkeys is empty.
+ \endcode
+
+ Since settings for Windows are stored in the registry there are
+ some size limitations as follows:
+ \list
+ \i A subkey may not exceed 255 characters.
+ \i An entry's value may not exceed 16,300 characters.
+ \i All the values of a key (for example, all the 'recent files'
+ subkeys values), may not exceed 65,535 characters.
+ \endlist
+
+ These limitations are not enforced on Unix or Mac OS X.
+
+ \warning Creating multiple, simultaneous instances of TQSettings writing
+ to a text file may lead to data loss! This is a known issue which will
+ be fixed in a future release of TQt.
+
+ \section1 Notes for Mac OS X Applications
+
+ The location where settings are stored is not formally defined by
+ the CFPreferences API.
+
+ At the time of writing settings are stored (either on a global or
+ user basis, preferring locally) into a plist file in \c
+ $ROOT/System/Library/Preferences (in XML format). TQSettings will
+ create an appropriate plist file (\c{com.<first group name>.plist})
+ out of the full path to a key.
+
+ For further information on CFPreferences see
+ \link http://developer.apple.com/documentation/CoreFoundation/Conceptual/CFPreferences/index.html
+ Apple's Specifications\endlink
+
+ \section1 Notes for Unix Applications
+
+ There is no universally accepted place for storing application
+ settings under Unix. In the examples the settings file will be
+ searched for in the following directories:
+ \list 1
+ \i \c SYSCONF - the default value is \c INSTALL/etc/settings
+ \i \c /opt/MyCompany/share/etc
+ \i \c /opt/MyCompany/share/MyApplication/etc
+ \i \c $HOME/.qt
+ \endlist
+ When reading settings the files are searched in the order shown
+ above, with later settings overriding earlier settings. Files for
+ which the user doesn't have read permission are ignored. When saving
+ settings TQSettings works in the order shown above, writing
+ to the first settings file for which the user has write permission.
+ (\c INSTALL is the directory where TQt was installed. This can be
+ modified by using the configure script's -prefix argument )
+
+ If you want to put the settings in a particular place in the
+ filesystem you could do this:
+ \code
+ settings.insertSearchPath( TQSettings::Unix, "/opt/MyCompany/share" );
+ \endcode
+
+ But in practice you may prefer not to use a search path for Unix.
+ For example the following code:
+ \code
+ settings.writeEntry( "/MyApplication/geometry/width", width );
+ \endcode
+ will end up writing the "geometry/width" setting to the file
+ \c{$HOME/.qt/myapplicationrc} (assuming that the application is
+ being run by an ordinary user, i.e. not by root).
+
+ For cross-platform applications you should ensure that the
+ \link #sizelimit Windows size limitations \endlink are not exceeded.
+
+ \warning TQSettings doesn't write the settings until it is destroyed so
+ you should construct the TQSettings object on the stack.

+ Inserts \a path into the settings search path. The semantics of \a
+ path depends on the system \a s. It is usually easier and better to
+ use setPath() instead of this function.
+
+ When \a s is \e Windows and the execution environment is \e not
+ Windows the function does nothing. Similarly when \a s is \e Unix and
+ the execution environment is \e not Unix the function does nothing.
+
+ When \a s is \e Windows, and the execution environment is Windows, the
+ search path list will be used as the first subfolder of the "Software"
+ folder in the registry.
+
+ When reading settings the folders are searched forwards from the
+ first folder (listed below) to the last, returning the first
+ settings found, and ignoring any folders for which the user doesn't
+ have read permission.
+ \list 1
+ \i HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/MyCompany/MyApplication
+ \i HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/MyCompany/MyApplication
+ \i HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/MyApplication
+ \i HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/MyApplication
+ \endlist
+
+ \code
+ TQSettings settings;
+ settings.insertSearchPath( TQSettings::Windows, "/MyCompany" );
+ settings.writeEntry( "/MyApplication/Tip of the day", TRUE );
+ \endcode
+ The code above will write the subkey "Tip of the day" into the \e
+ first of the registry folders listed below that is found and for
+ which the user has write permission.
+ \list 1
+ \i HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/MyCompany/MyApplication
+ \i HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/MyCompany/MyApplication
+ \i HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/MyApplication
+ \i HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/MyApplication
+ \endlist
+ If a setting is found in the HKEY_CURRENT_USER space, this setting
+ is overwritten independently of write permissions in the
+ HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE space.
+
+ When \a s is \e Unix, and the execution environment is Unix, the
+ search path list will be used when trying to determine a suitable
+ filename for reading and writing settings files. By default, there are
+ two entries in the search path:
+
+ \list 1
+ \i \c SYSCONF - where \c SYSCONF is a directory specified when
+ configuring TQt; by default it is INSTALL/etc/settings.
+ \i \c $HOME/.qt/ - where \c $HOME is the user's home directory.
+ \endlist
+
+ All insertions into the search path will go before $HOME/.qt/.
+ For example:
+ \code
+ TQSettings settings;
+ settings.insertSearchPath( TQSettings::Unix, "/opt/MyCompany/share/etc" );
+ settings.insertSearchPath( TQSettings::Unix, "/opt/MyCompany/share/MyApplication/etc" );
+ // ...
+ \endcode
+ Will result in a search path of:
+ \list 1
+ \i SYSCONF
+ \i /opt/MyCompany/share/etc
+ \i /opt/MyCompany/share/MyApplication/etc
+ \i $HOME/.qt
+ \endlist
+ When reading settings the files are searched in the order shown
+ above, with later settings overriding earlier settings. Files for
+ which the user doesn't have read permission are ignored. When saving
