New to Building Konq/E

[Jim Burnes]

Luciano,

Thank you very much.  That is exactly the information I needed.

BTW: I'm somewhat concerned, given my limited memory (around 32MB)
that kdelibs might consume large amounts of memory.  Are you aware of
any way that I can selectively disable some part of kdelibs that are
unlikely to be used?

Again, thank you very much for your help.
