No

I downloaded this file, but I couldn't find any
documentation on how to use it, or, even why I would
want to use it.

    Please understand that I am currently the only developer of
    this program. I made a concious choice since day one to
    focus on coming up with a simple, easy program thats easy to
    download, no installation necessary and works with as little
    hassle as possible. Hopefully with that, very little
    documentation will be necessary. Admittedly, the program
    hasn't reached the standards that I've set for it. Then
    again, its only been 2-3 weeks since I first started writing
    this.

    Fyi, some simple steps on how to download and install is now
    available on the website eqmaps.sourceforge.net. There's
    also a webstart experiment that hopefully will become a one
    click install process when I'm done with it (It is currently
    one click for those who already have webstart installed, I'm
    trying to figure out if I can make it auto-install webstart
    too).

    I hope this enough for most people to start using this program.

    Why not just add the readme file to the download list? That
    should be enough for most people to get started.
