The main properties dialog class. A Properties Dialog is a dialog which displays various information about a particular file or URL, or several ones. This main class holds various related classes, which are instantiated in the form of tab entries in the tabbed dialog that this class provides. The various tabs themselves will let the user view or change information about the file or URL.
This class must be created with (void)new KPropertiesDialog(...) It will take care of deleting itself.
