[kde-linux] Krunner Coding Questions

[David Baron]

I have a krunner coded with "run" actions.

1. I add the actions. Their icons overwrite the "wrench" icon on the right. I 
actually prefer the icons rather than a the dropdown usually shown when 
clicking that icon. So I want to not have the "wrench" icon at all, just mine. 
How?

2. The action I have in mind would open the configuration dialog normally 
opened for my runner in the dropdown list of all the runners. Since this is a 
separate "kcm-module," how do I load it and exercise it, getting the 
configuration changed signal to my runner (the parent)?

(I could simply locally create the UI with my own default/apply/cancel 
buttonbox and do this brute force. But why?)

3. I do not want the krunner window to close when I click this action. I want 
to re-perform the match with any new options. How do I keep krunner "live" and 
accomplish this?

Any help or pointers to documentations would be greatly appreciated. Many 
thanks in advance.

(To try current version of recollrunner, get it from kde-apps.org. Recollindex 
runs nicely in the background and does not bog down my system as does the 
"default" kde indexer :-) )
