Linux Magazine has made available a number of KDE related articles for download. Alphabet Soup covers installing fonts in KDE. Olympian Exchange explores the file sharing application Apollon. A Virtual Basket looks at BasKet the ultimate scrap book for KDE. Finally On the Docks looks at two replacements for the panel, KoolDock and KXDocker.

It looks a bit too over-engineered to me to be included into main KDE. But some ideas should really go into klipper. Or even better into a streamlined replacement for kicker..

If BasKet like remembered the last X amount of selections and the last Y amount of copys you made, then it would be a great replacement for Klipper (which half the time doesn't notice I copy something).

Are you sure you have configured it to do so?
Configure Klipper->Synchronize contents of clipboard and the selection
Basket - Janne - 2005-05-10
Whoa! I didn't know about Basket before! It seems EXACTLY like the app I have been looking for! Now, if only Gentoo got ebuils for the latest version...
Re: Basket - Sebien - 2005-05-10
Notice that I'm searching BasKet packagers for Gentoo, Mandriva, Fedora...
For all distributions that are not packaged yet in the download page in fact.
Font Catalog - Sebien - 2005-05-10
As "Alphabet Soup" article said, it would be cool if KDE could do a "Font Catalog" out of the box.
I remember my mother some years ago who printed the list of all installed fonts on her Windows box... by hand with Publisher!
She needed and installed a lot of fonts to make cards/menus/... special events.
It would have helped she.
Install fonts in: "~/.fonts :-( - James Richard Tyrer - 2005-05-12
Unfortunately, the article fails to mention the pitfalls of installing fonts in your "$HOME/.fonts" directory (or any subdirectory of $HOME).
And the article fails to explain how to install them in "$KDEDIR/share/fonts".
