 /**
  * The base class for control center modules.
  *
  * Starting from KDE 2.0, control center modules are realized as shared
  * libraries that are loaded into the control center at runtime.
  *
  * The module in principle is a simple widget displaying the
  * item to be changed. The module has a very small interface.
  *
  * All the necessary glue logic and the GUI bells and whistles
  * are provided by the control center and must not concern
  * the module author.
  *
  * To write a config module, you have to create a library
  * that contains at one factory function like this:
  *
  * <pre>
  * #include <kgenericfactory.h>
  *
  * typedef KGenericFactory<YourKCModule, QWidget> YourKCModuleFactory;
  * K_EXPORT_COMPONENT_FACTORY( yourLibName, YourKCModuleFactory("name_of_the_po_file") );
  * </pre>
  *
  * The parameter "name_of_the_po_file" has to correspond with the messages target
  * that you created in your Makefile.am.
  *
  * See kdebase/kcontrol/HOWTO for more detailed documentation.
  *
