Description: KBar is a superkaramba theme that can (currently): 1. Execute commands; similar to the KDE Run Dialog. 2. Perform calculations; performs infix calculations, again like the KDE Run Dialog. 3. Search and display information from Wikipedia.
**************************************** PyQt and PyKDE are required for the wikipedia search function to work properly. ****************************************
Current Limitations: 1. Not available in .skz format , so you have to download the tar and extract it manually(unless you get it through khotnewstuff) 2.I havent tested the calculator extensively, so there may be errors. If you find an error, please report it back to me. (Please read the instructions for using the calculator in the Readme file). 3.Though you can follow internal wikipedia links, from a search, you cant go to an external site. Navigation through History is also currently disabled. 4.Only wikipedia engish is currently supported(this is mainly due to encoding).
What to expect in future. 1. Multi-lingual wikipedia support. 2. More features, probably a dictionary search service. 3. A graphical configuration widget. 4. Ability to easily customize the theme(easily change icons, background, font, colour etc.)
Special thanks to Everaldo for the gorgeous Crystal Clear icons,matti,gumis(for red-plantago) and the guys at #superkaramba@freenode.

I really like this theme, the first karamba theme that I found to be useful. Good work! Thanks.
