Lot of people are asking to save a basket sub-hierarchy into one file, so they can email them to somebody else, backup them...
There will be two new options in the “Basket” menu:
Save as Basket Archive
Load Basket Archive
Save will create ONE FILE containing a copy of the selected basket hierarchy or of the current basket.
Here is what is needed for the export to work:
Copy files to a .tar.gz archive
Rename teh extension to “.baskets” (like OpenDocuments)
Include a mini baskets.xml to keep the hierarchy
Pre-compute a preview of the first basket, so that Konqueror can display a preview
The preview is also needed for “New → Basket... → From a template”. Templates will be basket archives... just with different location and perhapse extension
Use UTF-8 to store every files, so it can be understood on any PC.
Include an header to the file, a magic
MIME-type string for Konqueror to know it’s a basket archive, and a version number, to be able to open the file with any application version.
Also include a copy of tags.xml so that used custom tags are also exported to another computer
Also include custom background images (same reason, when people will be able to define theire own background image)
