NAME

ABSTRACT
UI::Dialog::Backend::KDialog is the UI::Dialog backend for theKDE
dialog
variant. While this module is used through UI::Dialog or any other loader
module only the compatible methods are ever accessible. However, when using
this module directly in your application (as in the SYNOPSIS
example) you are
given access to all the options and features of the real kdialog(1) application.
DESCRIPTION
Although this dialog variant doesn't have any progress meters, it does have the benefits of many different file/uri/directory widgets. It's a shame that this is the only dialog variant forKDE.
