You open a new shell, you type in 'runmaster'. Now your shell/konsole
tab will have the proper variables to run any application, especially
ones from master. Then you just type in the app, e.g. plasma-desktop.
That's all it does really, pretty simple. You just need to change
those env vars to something that your system can use (that is,
whereever kde master is installed).

No, I just didn't catch the } apparently.
