API docu fixes...

if using \fn infront of a function make sure to name the right function

 /**
  * Child process invocation, monitoring and control.
  *
  * @sect General usage and features
  *
- *This class allows a KDE application to start child processes without having
+ *This class allows a KDE and OPIE application to start child processes without having
  *to worry about UN*X signal handling issues and zombie process reaping.
  *
  *@see KProcIO
  *
  *Basically, this class distinguishes three different ways of running
  *child processes:
  *
  *@li  OProcess::DontCare -- The child process is invoked and both the child
  *process and the parent process continue concurrently.
  *
  *Starting a  DontCare child process means that the application is
  *not interested in any notification to determine whether the
  *child process has already exited or not.
  *
  *@li  OProcess::NotifyOnExit -- The child process is invoked and both the
  *child and the parent process run concurrently.
  *
  *When the child process exits, the OProcess instance
  *corresponding to it emits the Qt signal @ref processExited().
  *
  *Since this signal is @em not emitted from within a UN*X
  *signal handler, arbitrary function calls can be made.
  *
  *Be aware: When the OProcess objects gets destructed, the child
  *process will be killed if it is still running!
  *This means in particular, that you cannot use a OProcess on the stack
  *with OProcess::NotifyOnExit.
  *
  *@li  OProcess::Block -- The child process starts and the parent process
  *is suspended until the child process exits. (@em Really not recommended
  *for programs with a GUI.)
  *
  *OProcess also provides several functions for determining the exit status
  *and the pid of the child process it represents.
  *
  *Furthermore it is possible to supply command-line arguments to the process
  *in a clean fashion (no null -- terminated stringlists and such...)
  *
  *A small usage example:
  *<pre>
  *OProcess *proc = new OProcess;
  *
  **proc << "my_executable";
  **proc << "These" << "are" << "the" << "command" << "line" << "args";
  *QApplication::connect(proc, SIGNAL(processExited(OProcess *)),
  *                      pointer_to_my_object, SLOT(my_objects_slot(OProcess *)));
  *proc->start();
  *</pre>
  *
  *This will start "my_executable" with the commandline arguments "These"...
  *
  *When the child process exits, the respective Qt signal will be emitted.
  *
  *@sect Communication with the child process
  *
  *OProcess supports communication with the child process through
  *stdin/stdout/stderr.
  *
  *The following functions are provided for getting data from the child
  *process or sending data to the child's stdin (For more information,
  *have a look at the documentation of each function):
  *
  *@li bool @ref writeStdin(char  *buffer, int  buflen);
  *@li  -- Transmit data to the child process's stdin.
  *
  *@li bool @ref closeStdin();
  *@li -- Closes the child process's stdin (which causes it to see an  feof(stdin)).
  *Returns false if you try to close stdin for a process that has been started
  *without a communication channel to stdin.
  *
  *@li bool @ref closeStdout();
  *@li -- Closes the child process's stdout.
  *Returns false if you try to close stdout for a process that has been started
  *without a communication channel to stdout.
  *
  *@li bool @ref closeStderr();
  *@li -- Closes the child process's stderr.
  *Returns false if you try to close stderr for a process that has been started
  *without a communication channel to stderr.
  *
  *
  *@sect QT signals:
  *
  *@li void @ref receivedStdout(OProcess  *proc, char  *buffer, int  buflen);
  *@li  void @ref receivedStderr(OProcess  *proc, char  *buffer, int  buflen);
  *@li  -- Indicates that new data has arrived from either the
  *child process's stdout or stderr.
  *
  *@li  void @ref wroteStdin(OProcess  *proc);
  *@li  -- Indicates that all data that has been sent to the child process
  *by a prior call to @ref writeStdin() has actually been transmitted to the
  *client .
  *
