Konqueror enhanced browsing

by Andy Stewart

Hi all, I've noticed in Konqueror that one can type things like: info: ...in the URL field and Konqueror will display info pages. There are others, such as: smb: lan: ftp: man: http: camera: The aforementioned are not listed in the Konqueror enhanced browsing configuration window, and I would guess that they are Konqueror defaults. Is there a definitive list of these? I'm wondering what features I might be missing that I'd like to use!

If you'd like to postpone it to the next meeting, I would be willing to co-present.

I haven't been able to come to a meeting yet, but I'll be there for that one! Getting encryption to work is my major stumbling block right now (mac address locked only...).
