<title>Introduction to libmcs</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <application>libmcs</application> package is a library and set of
|
|
tools which abstract the storage of configuration settings away from
|
|
userland applications. There are similar projects like this (such as
|
|
<application>GConf</application>), but unlike those projects,
|
|
<application>libmcs</application> strictly handles abstraction. It does not
|
|
impose any specific data storage requirement, nor is it tied to any
|
|
desktop environment or software suite.</para>

the <application>kde3</application> version and will try to use it (and
