hi all..
recently, after some heavy usage of KMail and Konqueror, i realised, that
the welcome screens seem to be in HTML-Format..
this made me think, that they are customizable..
can i do this?
and if yes.. where are the HTML/CSS files located and how to edit them...
just to make clear i DO know HTML and i DO know CSS, but maybe there are
some kind of makros used. well that would maybe make it necessary for me
to edit them too.

any help would help

At least on Debian, these seem to be under /usr/share/apps/konqueror/about
and /usr/share/apps/kmail/about. I assume the %n are where strings are
substituted in according to the current language.

More generally speaking we call this the "app data" paths.

You can get a list of paths searched for data resources by the following
command:
% kde-config --path data

Kevin
