/**
* \mainpage
*
* KoText is a library for general use that extends the QText framework
* (codenamed scribe) with an enhanced text-layout which adds features
* required by ODF and general word-processing applications.
*
* You can use KoText at all places where you would normally use a
* QTextDocument as the main text layout class in scribe can be replaced
* on any QTextDocument instance using QTextDocument::setDocumentLayout().
* This means you can use the Qt API as normal, but you will be
* able to use extra features like the plugins, the variables and the
* ODF loading and saving for all the ODF text-layout features.
*
* TextShape Flake-Plugin
*
* Closely coupled with the kotext library is the text plugin that is
* build on flake technology. All the user interaction dialogs and code
* will reside in that plugin, and the actual heavy lifting of the
* layout also is present only in that plugin. In other words; this
* library will supply you with the APIs but without having the text
* shape plugin loaded you can't show or layout the text. The goal is
* to keep it cheap to link to this library and only provide the bare
* minimum of functionality is the way to get there. The feature-
* package will be completed by the optional text-plugin.
*
* QTextDocument compatibility
*
* The actual content is stored in the QTextDocument, as mentioned before.
* In KoText we support a lot more features than Qt does in its layout
* and this library will allow you to enrich your document with those
* features. The core design goal is that you can use an externally
* created QTextDocument with KoText. This has the implication that all
* the extra content is stored inside the document. We add QTextFormat
* based properties for that as can be seen in the styles (see
* KoParagraphStyle::Properities for instance), and we allow managers to
* be stored on the document too. So for example a KoStyleManager will
* be stored as a property on the QTextDocument and you can access that
* using the KoTextDocument API. Note that you can use the
* KoTextDocument class while using only a QTextDocument instance.
*
* Plugins
*
* There are various plugins for KoText that make it possible for 3rd
* parties to extend the KoText functionality, see the techbase page;
* http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Calligra_Overview#Text_Plugins
*
* ODF compatibility
*
* Loading and saving of documents can be done to and from ODF using the
* open document classes.
*
* Important classes;
*
* KoTextDocumentLayout the main layout class to be set on the QTextDocument.
*
* KoInlineTextObject plugin base for inline objects (and variables)
*
* KoTextEditingPlugin plugin base for text editing plugins.
*
* KoText namespace.
