I discovered a list of these in the KDE Control Center under Information...Protocols (thanks to a reply from the suse-linux-e mailing list). I tried them out and some of them are quite cool, especially "print:/". I think "camera:/" would be cool if it worked with my camera. "audiocd:/" was interesting since I think it does a file format conversion on the fly if you drag/drop the file someplace.

There are called kioslaves (intoduced in kde2.0), there are pretty neat. A complete list can be found in the kcontol center information->protocals. Some of these kioslaves do not make sense to call directly, for example pop3. the pop3 kioslave is used by kmail. kioslaves are available to all KDE applications to read from, and possibly write to. For example you can write a document in kword, and save it to a location using a kioslave. Just type 'ftp://somehost/path' in the 'save as' location. The kioslave for ftp (kio_ftp) will be called and do the file I/O. There are other kioslaves available that are not distributed with KDE, like fish, which is a kioslave that will allow you to brows a remote machine using ssh.

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!

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...).
