The Konqueror Menu
‘Location’
Using ‘Location’, open additional Konqueror windows. If you click
‘New Window’, your home directory is displayed in a new window. ‘Dupli-
cate Window’ produces a second window with the same content. You can
also send a file or a link (using the browser function) by e-mail. If you click
one of these menu items, the KMail composer opens. Specify the recipient
and compose a text. Depending on the selected item, the file is already at-
tached or the link is displayed in the e-mail body. You can also print directly
from this menu.

‘Edit’
Most items under ‘Edit’ only become active if you select an object in the
main window. Apart from the standard editing functions, like cutting,
copying, pasting, renaming, moving to the trash, and deleting, there is also
the ‘Create New’ item, which can be used to create directories, files, and de-
vices. Another item in the ‘Edit’ menu lets you view and change the prop-
erties of files and directories and their permissions. With it, grant or deny
the owner, a group, or all users read, write, and execute permissions. In the
main window, select one or several files by moving the mouse pointer over
them while keeping the left mouse button pressed or using ‘Selection’ ➝
‘Select’.

‘View’
Use the ‘View’ menu to change views. If a directory has many objects
in it, the text view or the tree view may be more efficient. To view HTML
pages, activate ‘Use index.html’. If a directory contains a file with this
name, Konqueror loads and displays it.

To influence the way in which the main window displays directory con-
tents, use the items ‘Icon Size’, ‘Show Hidden Files’, ‘Sort’, and ‘Preview’. In
addition, use ‘Configure Background’ to set the main window’s background
to a certain color or use an image for it.

‘Go’
The ‘Go’ menu contains the navigation functions ‘Up’, ‘Back’, ‘Forward’,
and ‘Home Page’. However, the same functions can be accessed more
quickly and conveniently through the toolbar. You can also call applications
from this menu and open all folders that have an icon on the desktop. In
the lower part of the menu, find a list of the recently-viewed directories or
links.
