/**
* TerminalInterface is an interface implemented by KonsolePart to
* allow developers access to the KonsolePart in ways that are not
* possible through the normal KPart interface.
*
* Note that besides the functions below here, KonsolePart also has
* some signals you can connect to. They aren't in this class cause
* we can't have signals without having a TQObject, which
* TerminalInterface is not.
* These are the signals you can connect to:
* void processExited( KProcess *process );
* void receivedData( const TQString& s );
* See the example code below for how to connect to these..
*
* The process provided by processExited() is obviously exited,
* and is only guaranteed to be valid until you return from the
* slot connected to it!
*
* Use it like this:
* \code
* // fetch the Library..
* KLibFactory* factory = KLibLoader::self()->factory( "libkonsolepart" );
* if ( factory == 0L )
* {
* // inform the user that he should install konsole..
* return;
* };
* // fetch the part..
* KParts::Part* p = static_cast<KParts::Part*>(
* factory->create( this, "tralala", "TQObject",
* "KParts::ReadOnlyPart" ) );
* assert( p );
* setCentralWidget( p->widget() );
*
* // cast the part to the TerminalInterface..
* TerminalInterface* t = static_cast<TerminalInterface*>( p->qt_cast( "TerminalInterface" ) );
* if( ! t )
* {
* // This probably happens because the konsole that is installed
* // comes from before KDE 3.2 , and the TerminalInterface is not
* // available.. What you can do here is either inform the user
* // that he needs a more recent konsole, or try to deliver the
* // functionality in some other way...
* return;
* };
* // now use the interface in all sorts of ways, e.g.
* // t->showShellInDir( TQDir::home().path() );
* // or:
* // TQStrList l;
* // l.append( "python" );
* // t->startProgram( TQString::fromUtf8( "/usr/bin/python" ), l);
* // or connect to one of the signals. Connect to the Part object,
* // not to the TerminalInterface, since the latter is no TQObject,
* // and as such cannot have signals..:
* // connect( p, TQT_SIGNAL( processExited( int ) ),
* // this, TQT_SLOT( shellExited( int ) ) );
* // etc.
*
* \endcode
*
* @since 3.2
