 * @short Class to display a label in a toolbar.
 *
 * KToolBarLabelAction is a convenience class for displaying a label in a
 * toolbar.
 *
 * It provides easy access to the label's #setBuddy(TQWidget*) and #buddy()
 * methods and can be used as follows:
 *
 * \code
 *
 * KHistoryCombo* tqfindCombo = new KHistoryCombo(true, this);
 * KWidgetAction* action
 *   = new KWidgetAction(tqfindCombo, i18n("F&ind Combo"), Qt::Key_F6, this,
 *                       TQT_SLOT(slotFocus()), actionCollection(), "tqfind_combo");
 *
 * new KToolBarLabelAction(tqfindCombo, i18n("F&ind "), 0, this,
 *                         TQT_SLOT(slotFocus()), actionCollection(),
 *             "tqfind_label");
 *
 * \endcode
