/**
* @class KHelpMenu khelpmenu.h KHelpMenu
*
* @short Standard %KDE help menu with dialog boxes.
*
* This class provides the standard %KDE help menu with the default "about"
* dialog boxes and help entry.
*
* This class is used in KMainWindow so
* normally you don't need to use this class yourself. However, if you
* need the help menu or any of its dialog boxes in your code that is
* not subclassed from KMainWindow you should use this class.
*
* The usage is simple:
*
* \code
* mHelpMenu = new KHelpMenu( this );
* kmenubar->addMenu(mHelpMenu->menu() );
* \endcode
*
* or if you just want to open a dialog box:
*
* \code
* mHelpMenu = new KHelpMenu( this );
* connect(this, &ClassFoo::someSignal, mHelpMenu, &KHelpMenu::aboutKDE);
* \endcode
*
* IMPORTANT:
* The first time you use KHelpMenu::menu(), a QMenu object is
* allocated. Only one object is created by the class so if you call
* KHelpMenu::menu() twice or more, the same pointer is returned. The class
* will destroy the popupmenu in the destructor so do not delete this
* pointer yourself.
*
* The KHelpMenu object will be deleted when its parent is destroyed but you
* can delete it yourself if you want. The code below will always work.
*
* \code
* MyClass::~MyClass()
* {
* delete mHelpMenu;
* }
* \endcode
*
*
* Using your own "about application" dialog box:
*
* The standard "about application" dialog box is quite simple. If you
* need a dialog box with more functionality you must design that one
* yourself. When you want to display the dialog, you simply need to
* connect the help menu signal showAboutApplication() to your slot.
*
* \code
* void MyClass::myFunc()
* {
* ..
* KHelpMenu *helpMenu = new KHelpMenu( this );
* connect(helpMenu, &KHelpMenu::showAboutApplication, this, &ClassFoo:myDialogSlot);
* ..
* }
*
* void MyClass::myDialogSlot()
* {
* <activate your custom dialog>
* }
* \endcode
*
* \image html khelpmenu.png "KHelpMenu"
*
* KHelpMenu respects Kiosk settings (see the KAuthorized namespace in the
* KConfig framework). In particular, system administrators can disable items
* on this menu using some subset of the following configuration:
