    QTeXEngine GNU GPL v. 3.0
    ------------------------
    AUTHOR: Ion Vasilief
    ------------------------
    FEATURES:  QTeXEngine enables Qt based applications to easily export graphics created using the
           QPainter class to the .tex format using Pgf/TikZ packages (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pgf/).
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    DEPENDENCIES: You need Qt (http://www.qtsoftware.com) installed on your system in order to build QTeXEngine.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    COMPILING: QTeXEngine uses qmake for the building process.
        qmake is part of a Qt distribution:
        qmake reads project files, that contain the options and rules how to build a certain project.
        A project file ends with the suffix "*.pro". Please read the qmake documentation for more details.

    After installing Qt on your system, type the following command lines:

        $ qmake
        $ make

    if you use MinGW, or:

        $ qmake -tp vc -r

    if you use Microsoft Visual Studio (this will generate Visual Studio .vcproj project files in the "src" and "example" folders).

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    USE: a short demo application is provided in the "example" folder of the source archive.
