-#Welcome to BeOS!
+#Welcome to the Q Engine!
+Intended to be a Level editor/game engine like Half-Life 2 and its glorious Hammer Editor.
+
 This shall be a little game engine/graphics engine wrapper, in C++.
 It's done in one header file so you don't have to link something or include other stuff than `engine.hpp`.
 Except of course for all the graphics engine stuff where I cannot do anything.

 [qEventReceiver] - derive a class from that and set it with `engine->setEventReceiver(...) `to receive clicks on GUI buttons, single key presses, mouse events, listbox changes and other stuff.

+##Examples
 [example_01] - a main loop with two entities.
 [example_02] - learn how to use the GUI.
 [example_03] - a little editor. (No saving right now, though)
