#383 Installation instructions missing

[Anonymous]

When cloning Qwt, the installation instructions are missing. After a clean checkout there's a README file in the top-level directory, which under the Installation section says:

Read INSTALL how to build and install Qwt.

Opening the INSTALL file shows just one line:

see doc/html/qwtinstall.html

But there is no html folder under the doc directory (and the obviously there's no qwtinstall.html file either).

Running doxygen on the Doxyfile in the doc directory is required to generate the html directory and its contents, but this step is not listed in the README or INSTALL instructions

Right - the build/install process is made for using the releases and lacks a couple of steps, when using the code unpreprocessing from the git repository. Needs to be improved ...

FYI: building the Qwt tarballs is done by a script you find a shell script admin/sf2package.sh that is intended to work on at least my system. It requires thousands of LateX packages needed by doxygen.
