Description: these are two little config files that enables an useful but hidden feature of kde 3.4: a quick filter bar in konqueror like the one in juk or amarok. -to install it system wide unpack the tarball into your $KDEDIR -if you want to install it for only an user unpack it ito ~/.kde
I can't get it to work in my kde 3.3.2, sigh :( Konqueror recognizes that a supplementary toolbar exists (in the configure > toobars > a new toolbar has appeared), but that toolbar won't be available to appear while browsing files. Too bad :(
I upgraded KDE to 3.4.
Applied the patch.
And... it worked !
And it's one of the best functions in Konqueror, shame it's not present by default !
Thanks a bunch for writing that KDE improvement :o)
its working fine with me
make sure you unpacked the files in right places
after i copied them i noticed "run shell command" or something in tools menu runned it and its workin fine now
thanks for the developer for that great tool althought i have another small idea is a drop down meny filtering by types not just extensions ie "show photos only" "audios" etc and can be managed.. addind extension to a type or creating new type etc...
Afaik it was a wishlist request(http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=93236) implemented by Martin Koller few days before the RC2 come out, too late for a mayor ui change.
I copied (only iconview) rc file into $kdedir (and ~/.kde/ for same token) but the entry doesn't show up in either the Tools menu, or anywhere in "Configure Toolbars".
How do I add it to the tool bar?
Slackware 10.1
KDE 3.4
QT 3.3.3
My guess you need to correct the dependencies. Shouldn't it require QT 3.3.4 instead?
I figured out for my Kubuntu desktop that I needed konq-plugins before it would show up. After I downloaded that it showed up without any issues.
I can only assume there's a similar package you have to download for Slackware.

I think this doesn't work in kde4 or is this the case? It would be a shame if not!!!!
Great Plugin. Thanks!
why isn't this the kde default? it's really great, thank you very much. PS: works on kde 3.5
I agree this should be "officially" implemented into KDE. Maybe voting for Bug 112236 at bugs.kde.org helps: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=112236
great feature - i use it daily

Thanks for this! I was looking for something like it for a while! It really is brilliant.
Thanks, this is something I wanted for ages, it should be there by default. Maybe for 3.5.
This is an awesome feature! Thanks very much.
i love it =) is there any way to get it for the cervisia view also ?
Great lil feature to unleash.
Thanks for a great feature that is extremely useful!
Why is it "hidden" by default? It sounds like a great feature (I havn't tried it yet) Thanks.

Is it possible to enable "quickfilter" in "file open/save" dialogs?
useful! thanks
