概述

KDE 4.0 圖形指南4.1 影片 給了早期的KDE軟體匯集(Software Compilation 簡稱SC)4一個極好的概述。

以下的詞彙打算幫你穿越新名稱和新概念的迷霧。在有些情況下,你能找到KDE3組件到與他對等的關聯的KDE SC 4軟體的鏈接。


活動
活動(Activities)是一系列擁有自己壁紙的Plasma元件。有點類似虛擬桌面,但不完全是。 (譯者註:虛擬桌面變的是程式窗口,活動變的是窗口的背景-桌面,比如說壁紙,圖示,元件)
比如你有一個「工作活動」: 帶有rss訂閱信息,你的一份TODO筆記,一個帶有與你工作有關文件的文件夾視圖和一幅微妙的壁紙。
在他旁邊,你還有另一個「空閒時間活動」,帶著家庭照片和狗照片的預覽,你最愛的博客的rss訂閱信息,一個展示你的電影收藏的文件夾視圖,一個twitter小元件,當然還有從80年代初喜愛至今的鐵娘子樂隊(Iron Maiden)的壁紙。
在17:00整點的時候你從「工作活動」切換到「空閒時間活動」中。

Akonadi
為KDE SC 4中所有的PIM (Personal Information Manager 個人信息管理套件)數據設計的數據存儲訪問機制。單一的存儲和檢索系統帶來了KDE3時無法給與的效率和可擴展性,KDE3下每個PIM組件都是有各自的系統。注意採用Akonadi並不會改變數據的存儲格式(vcard, iCalendar, mbox, maildir 等.) - 它只是提供一種訪問和更新數據的新方式。
設計開發Akonadi的主要原因是技術方面,例如從不同的程式(例如kmail,kword。。)用一種統一的方式訪問PIM數據(聯繫人,日程表,emails。。。),因此無需到處編寫類似的代碼。
另一個目標是將圖形程式像是kmail從直接訪問外部資源比如mail-servers(郵件服務器)中脫離- 這是過去有關性能/響應(performance/responsiveness)的bug回報/願望的主要原因。

aRts
KDE 2和3的聲音框架。他的單任務特性在兩個聲源遭遇時會引起問題。 Plasma桌面中被 Phonon 取代。

容器
容器(Containment)是元件(widget)的頂層組合。每個容器管理他的與其他容器獨立的一系列元件的佈局和配置數據。
最終結果是你能根據對你工作模式的意義來組合多個元件到一個容器內,而不是根據目錄分組。


D-Bus
一個服務間的消息系統(inter-service messaging system)。由RedHat開發,深受KDE3的DCOP系統的影響而且在KDE4中取代DCOP。

Dolphin
KDE SC 4的默認檔案管理員。他擁有側邊面板,導航主要依靠主窗口上的「麵包屑(breadcrumb)」路徑。支持拆分窗口,視圖可以單獨應用到個別的窗口。可以在側邊面板中掛載和卸載USB設備。其他目錄也能添加到「地址」面板。樹形結構視圖也有提供。

擴展
擴展(Extenders)是一類特殊的從例如Plasma面板伸長出來的彈出物(伸長這詞好糟糕啊)。擴展有可拆分部分。擴展是KDE SC 4.2引入Plasma的新概念。「通知」已經使用這一系統。比如在用戶下載任務或檔案復制任務時啟用追蹤任務進度。這也會用于其他各種通知。

Flake
Flake是應用在KOffice2上的編程函數庫(programming library)。功能上,它提供用來顯示內容「形狀(Shapes)」和操作內容的工具。形狀可以縮放或旋轉,可以組合多個形狀成單個形狀,可以圍繞形狀製作文本流(text flow)。

獲得百寶箱
獲得百寶箱(Get Hot New Stuff,簡稱GHNS)是個開放的標準,使得使用者能容易的下載和安裝各種程式的擴展。我們的GHNS實現被應用在Plasma中(舉例來說像獲得新的桌面主題),以及很多應用程式和元件。

Home目錄(主文件夾)
這是系統內存放你所有文件的地方。你可以在這個文件夾之外存放文件,但是所有的程式都設置成建議保存文件到這個文件夾內。保存東西在這更容易些。

KControl
在KDE 3中控制中心(KDE Control Center)用作設置全局性偏好。在KDE4中被系統設定介面取代。


KDOM
一個KPart模塊,使得KHTML DOM(文檔物件模型,Document Object Model)渲染能力對所有程式都可用。為KDE SC 4設計的KSVG2就是建立在KDOM之上。


KHTML
KHTML 是KDE Plasma桌面的HTML渲染引擎,被使用在Konqueror瀏覽器中。它也提供一個KPart以使得所有的KDE程式都能顯示網頁內容。新的引進,Qt Webkit也能用於Plasma和其他程式的開發。


Kicker
KDE3中,可定位的一欄,通常在屏幕底部(有時候又稱面板),上面有程式啟動器,分頁器以及啟動程式駐留的按鈕。查看面板


Kickoff
在KDE SC 4(和一些KDE 3新版)裡,一個其中的程式按照功能分類的啟動菜單。 「收藏夾」替換了經典菜單中的「用的最多的程式」,程式可以添加進去。右擊同樣提供可選項添加程式到桌面上或是面板上。快速訪問一個很少用的程式可以使用搜索框。其他的菜單還在開發中,因為在KDE SC 4裡可以使用多個啟動器,如果需要的話。

KJS
KDE平台的JavaScript引擎。


KDE信息中心
KDE信息中心(KInfoCenter)最初作為Kcontrol的一部分,直到KDE 3.1獨立出來。 KDE SC 4 中直到 4.4,他被系統設定中的設置模塊取代,特別是Solid,在 KDE SC 4.5 中將作為單獨的一個程序重新引入。

KDE資訊中心


KIO
KDE輸入/輸出框架,為操作文件(不管是本地或是遠程服務器)提供了一個單獨的API。此外,KIO Slaves 還為個別協議提供支持。一些尤其有用的協議是http,ftp,sftp,smb, nfs,ssh (fish),man,tar和zip。

Kiosk
Kiosk是個用來限制KDE平台系統中用戶能力的框架,理想的使用是在鎖定環境下,比如網吧。KDE 3 和 KDE 4 都有提供,但管理工具 Kiosktool 只是 KDE 3 僅有。它可以被用于設定 KDE 4 程式,或可以手動編輯檔案維護 kiosk 配置。


KPart
KPart是KDE Plasma桌面的個別組件並允許應用程式彼此共享服務。 KParts允許KMail和KOrganizer(以插件的方式)整合進Kontact套件,或整合KHTML進Akregator以顯示網站內容。


Kross
Kross is a scripting framework, enabling support for multiple scripting languages. A plugin system allows for the support of further languages in the future.


KRunner
The mini-command-line that is accessed from the Classic menu, the keyboard shortcut Alt+F2, or a right-click on the desktop. In KDE SC 4 a partial name will display all possible matches
More info:
Youtube - KDE SC 4.1 KRunner


KSVG
KSVG enables support for scalable vector graphics in a KHTML browser. KSVG2 extends this for KDE SC 4.


KWin
KWin is the window manager. This is where window decorations can be changed and themes applied. KDE SC 4 extends KWin to provide support for 3D Compositing effects on the desktop.

Nepomuk
'Networked Environment for Personalized, Ontology-based Management of Unified Knowledge', Nepomuk aims to remove artificial barriers between information to allow dynamic classification, organisation and presentation of data to the user. Whether downloaded from the internet, received in an email or scribbled in a note, information is globally searchable and tagged with intelligent data. See The Semantic Desktop for further discussion of this concept.

Oxygen
Oxygen is the default theme of KDE SC 4. Designed to bring 'a breath of fresh air' to the desktop by removing the simplistic, cartoonish icons, and replacing them with a clean theme and photo-realistic icons. Oxygen uses a desaturated palette to avoid the icons becoming a distraction and uses detailed scalable graphics (SVG).

Pager
A pager is a small program or panel applet which shows the position of windows on your desktop and usually, if you have several Virtual Desktops, gives an overview over all.


Panel
See Kicker. In KDE SC 4 the name 'kicker' is dropped, and the name 'panel' is the norm. 'Applets' are largely replaced by Widgets


Phonon
A cross-platform multimedia API, interfacing with existing frameworks, such as gstreamer and xine engines. KDE 2 and 3 depended on aRts for sound. Phonon replaces it.
More info:

Phonon website


Plasma
In KDE SC 4 the Plasma Desktop replaces KDesktop, kicker and the superkaramba widget engine. The applets are called Plasmoids, and range from informational widgets to mini-apps such as a calculator or dictionary. Widgets from other sources, such as SuperKaramba widgets or Google Gadgets are also supported.

Qt
(Pronounced 'cute') A framework/toolkit for writing cross-platform applications. It is used by many cross-platform applications such as Opera browser, GoogleEarth and Skype. Qt is developed by Trolltech, who are now part of the Nokia company. Qt forms the underlying library KDE software is built on.

Solid
Solid provides a single API for hardware management. Hardware is grouped into 'domains'. The initial domains relate to HAL, NetworkManager and the Bluetooth stack.Since the backends for Solid are pluggable, Solid helps application developers write less code, and have it platform independent.

Soprano
Soprano is a sub-project of Nepomuk, providing a repository for gathered information such as tags, ratings, etc.. This makes the information available to Strigi

Strigi
A deep-indexed search daemon, Strigi aims to be fast and light-weight. It also uses SHA-1 hash which will help in the identification of duplicate files.

System Settings
KDE SC 4's replacement for KControl (Control Center) providing modular control over the KDE platform.

Threadweaver
This thread programming library spreads work among multiple-core processors where available, prioritising them before queueing them for execution. ThreadWeaver provides a high-level job interface for multithreaded programming.
More info:
Why Multithreading? (Technical article)


Virtual Desktops
A popular concept of Unix based window managers is the one of virtual desktops. This means you have not only one screen where you can place your windows on but several. When you switch to a different desktop (usually with a pager) you will only see the windows which you started on your new desktop or moved to it. A window can also be made "sticky" which means it appears on all virtual desktops.


WebKit
HTML rendering engine, originating from a fork of KHTML. Adopted by Apple and developed for Safari. Webkit brings the whole functionality back to KDE SC 4, where it is available through Qt.

The Webkit home page
Wikipedia - Webkit


Widget
Collins English Dictionary: "Any small mechanism or device the name of which is unknown or temporarily forgotten." In KDE software terms, a widget is a single component on the canvas. Other common names that are analogous are "applet" or "gadget". Superkaramba Themes, Apple's Dashboard, Google Gadgets, Yahoo Widgets, Vista Sidebar Widgets, Opera Widgets are all examples of other widget systems (some of which are supported by Plasma as well).


X-Server
The X-Server represents a basic layer upon which the various GUIs like the KDE Plasma desktop are built. It manages the basic mouse and keyboard input (from the local host as well as from remote hosts) and provides elementary graphic routines to draw rectangles and other primitives.


XMLGUI
A programmers' framework for designing the user interface. It is extensively used by KParts
More info:
Wikipedia - XMLGUI
Wikipedia - Qt Style Sheets


ZUI
The Zooming User Interface. "By zooming out, users can get an overview of all the object groupings that they have made. These groupings may reflect the projects they are working on, be ways to keep different sets of files organized, etc. By hovering or clicking on one of these groups when zoomed out, users can either get a preview/snapshot of what is in the grouping, or zoom in on that grouping so that it is displayed full size on the physical screen." aseigo.
