This starts a new Document in the editor. If there is a current document with unsaved changes the user is given a chance to save it.
Displays a standard KDE Open File dialog. Use the file view to select the file you want to open, and click on to open it. You can find more information about the KDE Open File dialog in the KDE User Guide.
This is a shortcut to open recently saved documents. Clicking on this item opens a list to the side of the menu with several of the most recently saved files. Clicking on a specific file will open it in KWrite - if the file still resides at the same location.
This saves the current document. If there has already been a save of the document then this will overwrite the previously saved file without asking for the user's consent. If it is the first save of a new document the save as dialog (described below) will be invoked.
This allows a document to be saved with a new file name. This is done by means of the file dialog box described above in the Open section of this help file.
Reloads the active file from disk. This command is useful if another program or process has changed the file while you have it open in KWrite.
Opens a simple print dialog allowing the user to specify what, where, and how to print.
Export your file in HTML format so your document can be viewed as a web page.
Close the active file with this command. If you have made unsaved changes, you will be prompted to save the file before KWrite closes it.
This will close the editor window, if you have more than one instance of KWrite running, through the or menu items, those instances will not be closed.
