31 * @class KUrlRequester kurlrequester.h <KUrlRequester>
32 *
33 * This class is a widget showing a lineedit and a button, which invokes a
34 * filedialog. File name completion is available in the lineedit.
35 *
36 * The default for the filedialog is to ask for one existing local file, i.e.
37 * the default mode is 'KFile::File | KFile::ExistingOnly | KFile::LocalOnly',
38 * which you can change by using setMode().
39 *
40 * The default filter is "*", i.e. show all files, which you can change by
41 * using setNameFilters() or setMimeTypeFilters().
42 *
43 * By default the start directory is the current working directory, or the
44 * last directory where a file has been selected previously, you can change
45 * this behavior by calling setStartDir().
46 *
47 * The default window modality for the file dialog is Qt::ApplicationModal
48 *
