Thank you for your reply.    I have two of my own KDE applications foo &
bar.  I want to be able to start foo from bar( if bar is  not running).  I
am trying to abide by the KDE documentation for services,.This documentatio=
n
could be  out of date but more likely a procedural error on my part

You can generally just &quot;start&quot; document files and KDE will figure out \
which<br> application to launch to handle that file, according to the MIME \
