"Configure your desktop" info wanted

[Xenaflux]

When I change the configuration of my desktop ( fonts-themes-etc ) it writes to a file or files.
Where do I find that file ( or those files )
And what is/are the names of them.

Obviously, I looked for them, but.......

a link to..... documentation/wiki/any-place .  .  will be fine

Thanks

Assuming you are using an updated kde4 desktop, I think those files are located in Home/.kde4/share/config

I could very well be wrong about that though.

That was fast.
I wished my wife was as responsive as you   

OK, the classic.....I looked everywhere, but not there, which is one obvious place !

Thanks Rudge, I will see if I come right there.

What I had in mind is to make a certain " look and feel " , then save the config-what-ever.
Then create another one , save....
Then.........
etc etc

Easier for show-my-friends purpose

I think there is a gui that will do this for you.

Look in "Configure Your Desktop/ Desktop Theme" and check under the (Customized) "thingy". I think you can save the desktop under whatever name you choose.

Again, I could very well be wrong.

I think the easiest for my purpose is to simply backup and compress the whole .KDE4 or /.kede4/share/config folder.
It's not that big a size, and if I configure Kbackup properly , It should be OK.

If anyone else has another suggestion, please let me know.

The purpose of this exercise is only one thing....show potential linux users this and that.

Personally, I am as happy as a pig in .... with the defaults provided by the devs

Well, that should serve your purpose, as long as you don't mind copying in all of the /.kede4/share/config folders for each viewing.

It will be cool having a backup of all the desktops that you want to show.  Good luck

....as long as you don't mind copying in all of the /.kede4/share/config....

The .KDE4 folder ( everything) is 30 Mb ( uncompressed ).
As I have a 1T hard disk there is no problem with available space

If I only need the .kde4/share/config it is a few hundred Kb only

Using Kbackup or similar should do the job on a daily base and automatically or manually, as needed.
Only thing I have to do is give it an appropriate name, if so desired

I am going to spend some time there in that .KDE4 folder and learn a little more
