[PyQt] Add a download to KGet

[Jan Holthuis]

Thanks both of you!
Dog pointed me the right direction. However, I am now using the DBUS interface 
instead of DCOP (KDE 4 replaced it).

The Method is:
qdbus org.kde.kget /KGet addTransfers string:"http://www.example.com" 
string:"My Downloads" bool:True

All the Best,
Jan Holthuis
