/**

 A database for tips-of-the-day.
 This class provides convenient access to a database containing
 tips of the day. The database is stored in a XML file and parsed
 when a KTipDatabase object is created.
 Once the file is read in, you can access the tips to display
 them in the tip of the day dialog.
 The state of the tipdialog is saved to the applications's config file
 in the group "TipOfDay" with a boolean entry "RunOnStart". Check this value
 if you want to allow the user to enable/disable the tipdialog in the
 application's configuration dialog.
