NAME

       qdbus - a communication-interface for qt-based applications

SYNOPSIS

       qdbus [--system] [--literal] [servicename] [path] [method] [args]

DESCRIPTION

       qdbus    provides    an   interface   to   Qt-based   applications   communicating   over   D-Bus.    See
       http://www.freedesktop.org/software/dbus/ for more information about the big picture.

       By default qdbus will list all service names of services that are running and you can manipulate  at  the
       moment.  You can also manipulate and run several types of methods for each dbus-enabled application.

       servicename
              the service to connect to (e.g., org.freedesktop.DBus)

       path   the path to the object (e.g., /)

       method the method to call, with or without the interface

       args   arguments to pass to the call

OPTIONS

       --system
              connect to the system bus

       --literal
              print replies literally

EXAMPLE

       Here is an example of using qdbus to list all status information about a service:
       % qdbus org.ktorrent.ktorrent
