List in order of lookup and precendence with the exception of immutable entries, sections or files, which are resolved the other way around. > The docs are on techbase.kde.org, btw, and although some of > the pages talk about kde3, they seem to apply to kde4 also. Config handling itself hasn't been changed, so most docs should apply without any change as well. Some key names might have been changed or replaced though. The mechanism for marking things as immutable or environment based is still in place. Cheers, Kevin
