Which more stuff?

That was me :}

BTW, the dialogs in kwrite are using KDialogBase, it's just that the main
config dialog isn't using the IconList mode of KDB. I'll change that, as
soon as I finished compiling.

The reason why kwrite is not, yet, using KAction again is because of the
kguicommand system of Jochen. It's quite incompatible with the action
concept, although it has some advantages (like nice grouping (see key
config dlg) ) .

Bye,
