Description:
 This KDED module allows DCOP scripting of the
running window manager (usually KWin, but a
separate module allows scripting any
EWMH-compatible window manager that's running in
KDE).

See README for details.

Three examples: 

Launch Konqueror showing http://kde.org, close it
after 10 seconds

konqueror http://dot.kde.org --name dotkonqueror &
sleep 10
window=$(dcop kded wmiface findNormalWindows ""
"dotkonqueror Konqueror" "" "" 0 false)
dcop kded wmiface closeWindow $window

Cycle virtual desktops slowly

while true; do
    sleep 10
    desktop=$(dcop kded wmiface currentDesktop)
    total=$(dcop kded wmiface numberOfDesktops)
    if test $desktop = $total; then
        dcop kded wmiface setCurrentDesktop 1
    else
        dcop kded wmiface setCurrentDesktop $((
desktop + 1 ))
    fi
done

Minimize all KWrite windows

dcop kded wmiface findNormalWindows "" " Kwrite"
"" "" 0 false | \
    while read ln; do
        dcop kded wmiface minimize $ln
    done
