proxy settings

[Osvaldo Martin]

Hi,

Googling kioslaverc I found that there is a command to read from that file,
in order to extract the http proxy settings I should use this command:

"kreadconfig --file kioslaverc --group Proxy\ Settings --key httpproxy"

this will return the http host and the port, If the user is ussing and
authentication proxy conecction it will give also the username and password?


It this command available by default or require the installation some extra
package?

thanks.
