NAME
kmdr-executor - executor for the Kommander visual dialog building tool
SYNOPSIS
kmdr-executor [ generic-options ] [ -c catalog ] { --stdin | file } [
arg ... ]
DESCRIPTION
Kommander is a visual dialog building tool whose primary objective is
to create as much functionality as possible without using any scripting
language.
More specifically, Kommander is a set of tools that allow you to create
dynamic GUI dialogs that generate, based on their state, a piece of
text. The piece of text can be a command line to a program, any piece
of code, business documents that contain a lot of repititious or
templated text and so on. The resulting generated text can then be
executed as a command line program (hence the name "Kommander"),
written to a file, passed to a script for extended processing, and
literally anything else you can think of. The best part of it all?
You aren’t required to write a single line of code!
This executor (kmdr-executor) is used to run a dialog that has been
created by the dialog editor (kmdr-editor). Either the dialog file
(generally a .kmdr file) should be passed on the command-line, or else
the option --stdin should be passed and the dialog description should
be supplied as XML on standard input. Additional arguments for the
dialog itself may also be supplied.
This application is part of the official KDE web development module.
OPTIONS
Below are the kommander-specific options. For a full summary of
options, run kmdr-editor --help.
-c catalog
Use the given catalog for translation.
--stdin
Read the XML dialog description from standard input instead of
passing a .kmdr file on the command-line.
arg ...
Additional arguments to be passed on to the dialog itself.

can also enter the URL help:/kommander/ directly into konqueror or you
can run ‘khelpcenter help:/kommander/’ from the command-line.
If the KDE Help Centre is not installed then you can install the
package kdewebdev-doc-html and read this documentation in HTML format
