Doxygen documentation - WP12 and WP13 - first step.
Converted the descriptive chapters of the html docs to doxygen format
and modified index.dox accordingly.
This checkin includes only trivial reformatting, no major rewriting.
Added a chapter "Migrating Code from FLTK 1.1 to 1.3".
All links on the main page are working now.
Todo:
- Check doxygen error messages, rewrite pages (html tags, contents).
- Fill the new "Migrating..." chapter.
