Ah yes! That's exactly what i was trying to do. It never crossed my mind that 
i should try the root directory. I was avoiding the root directory as i was a 
little concerned about the memory/disk impact that kdevelop would make if i 
included the whole of say, kdebase. But i guess ill try that now anyway.
