Right, but more than a description of it is hard to do. The main problem being 
the source directory of the KDE3 system. It does not need to be .kde in any 
circumstance or .kde4 for KDE4 systems. That is up to the distro to some 
extent. So we could write up a short documentation about how to do it.

BTW, the xxui.rc file is the menu description. The settings are kept in 
$KDE/share/config/kmymoney[2]rc.
