31 * @short Recent files action
32 *
33 * This class is an action to handle a recent files submenu.
34 * The best way to create the action is to use KStandardAction::openRecent.
35 * Then you simply need to call loadEntries on startup, saveEntries
36 * on shutdown, addURL when your application loads/saves a file.
