/* -*- C++ -*-
 * This dialog allows the user to select one string out of a string list,
 * no matter whether it is a QStrLing or a STL-like list<string>.
 * The OK and Cancel buttons have their labels translated to the selected
 * locale.  There is a label above the QComboBox that contains the string
 * values,  usually showing a  description  of what the user should do in
 * the shown dialog. Its text can be set by the programmer.
 * The geometry management is done automatically, the dialog resizes when 
 * the KDE signal appearanceChanged() is received.
 * The dialog may be editable, allowing the user to enter a new string if
 * nothing appropriate is n the list, or not editable. 
 *
 * If the user adds a string in the editable state, the signal 
 *   void stringAdded(string);
 * is sent. With this you can keep track of the changes.
