KDE File System Standard

This file documents the directory structure that KDE and all KDE compliant applications should use. This is version 0.0.4 of the standard.

# 13.1. Introduction

The purpose of the KDE FSSTD is to ensure that all resources (icons, mimetypes etc.) needed for KDE applications are stored in a consistent directory structure. Following this structure allows applications to make use of tools such as the KIconLoader class and allows separation of the platform specific data needed by KDE from platform independent data (making installations on multiple architectures possible). In this document directory names have been suffixed with a `/` character. Where the word 'appname' appears in angle brackets &<;like this&>; it means that there should be an entry corresponding to every installed KDE application. The word 'lang' is used in the same way to indicate that there should be an entry for every supported language named according to the standard two letter language codes eg. 'fr' for French, 'de' for German etc.
