 /**
 \page getting_started Getting Started
-
-In this page we detail how to start using LEMON, from downloading it to
-your computer, through the steps of installation, to showing a simple
-"Hello World" type program that already uses LEMON. We assume that you
-have a basic knowledge of your operating system and C++ programming
-language. The procedure is pretty straightforward, but if you have any
-difficulties do not hesitate to
-<a href="mailto:lemon-user@lemon.cs.elte.hu"><b>ask</b></a>.
-
-\section requirements_lemon Hardware and Software Requirements
-
-In LEMON we use C++ templates heavily, thus compilation takes a
-considerable amount of time and memory. So some decent box would be
-advantageousm, but otherwise there are no special hardware requirements.
-
-You will need a recent C++ compiler. Our primary target is the GNU C++
-Compiler (g++), from version 3.3 upwards. We also checked the Intel C++
-Compiler (icc) and Microsoft Visual C++ (on Windows).
-If you want to develop with LEMON under Windows, you can use a Windows
-installer or you can consider using Cygwin.
-
-In this description we will suppose a Linux environment and GNU C++ Compiler.
-If you would like to develop under Windows and use a Windows installer,
-you could skip the following sections and continue reading \ref hello_lemon.
-However keep in mind that you have to make appropriate steps instead of
-the instructions detailed here to be able to compile the example code
-with your compiler.
-
-\subsection requirements_lp LP Solver Requirements
-
-The LEMON LP solver interface can use the GLPK (GNU Linear Programming
-Kit), CPLEX and SoPlex solver. If you want to use it, you will need at
-least one of these.
-See the <b><tt>INSTALL</tt></b> file how to enable these at compile time.
-
-\section download_lemon How to Download LEMON
-
-You can download LEMON from our web site:
-<a href="http://lemon.cs.elte.hu/">http://lemon.cs.elte.hu/</a>.
-There you will find released versions in form of <tt>.tar.gz</tt> files
-(and Windows installers).
-If you want a developer version (for example you want to contribute in
-developing LEMON) then you might want to use our Mercurial repository.
-This case is detailed \ref hg_checkout "later", so from now on we
-suppose that you downloaded a <tt>.tar.gz</tt> file.
-
-\section install_lemon How to Install LEMON
-
-In order to install LEMON you have to do the following steps.
-
-Download the tarball (named <tt>lemon-x.y.z.tar.gz</tt> where \c x, \c y
-and \c z are numbers indicating the version of the library, in our example
-we will have <tt>lemon-1.0.tar.gz</tt>) and issue the following commands:
-
-\verbatim
-tar xvzf lemon-1.0.tar.gz
-cd lemon-1.0
-./configure
-make
-make check    # This is optional, but recommended. It runs a bunch of tests.
-make install
-\endverbatim
-
-These commands install LEMON under \c /usr/local (you will
-need root privileges to be able to install to that
-directory). If you want to install it to some other place, then
-pass the \c --prefix=DIRECTORY flag to <tt>./configure</tt>, for example:
-
-\verbatim
-./configure --prefix=/home/username/lemon
-\endverbatim
-
-In what follows we will assume that you were able to install to directory
-\c /usr/local, otherwise some extra care is to be taken to use the library.
-
-We briefly explain these commands below.
-
-\verbatim
-tar xvzf lemon-1.0.tar.gz
-\endverbatim
-This command untars the <tt>tar.gz</tt> file into a directory named
-<tt>lemon-1.0</tt>.
-
-\verbatim
-cd lemon-1.0
-\endverbatim
-This command enters the directory.
-
-\verbatim
-./configure
-\endverbatim
-This command runs the configure shell script, which does some checks and
-creates the makefiles.
-
-\verbatim
-make
-\endverbatim
-This command compiles the non-template part of LEMON into <tt>libemon.a</tt>
-file. It also compiles the programs in the tools and demo subdirectories
-when enabled.
-
-\verbatim
-make check
-\endverbatim
-This step is optional, but recommended. It runs the test programs that
-have been developed for LEMON to check whether the library works properly on
-your platform.
-
-\verbatim
-make install
-\endverbatim
-This command will copy the directory structure to its final destination
-(e.g. to \c /usr/local) so that your system can access it.
-This command should be issued as "root", unless you provided a
-\c --prefix switch to the \c configure to install the library in
-non-default location.
-
-Several other configure flags can be passed to <tt>./configure</tt>.
-For more information see the <b><tt>INSTALL</tt></b> file.
-
-\section hg_checkout How to Checkout LEMON from our Mercurial Repository
-
-You can obtain the latest (developer) version of LEMON from our Mercurial
-repository. To do this issue the following command.
-\verbatim
-hg clone http://lemon.cs.elte.hu/hg/lemon-main lemon-src
-\endverbatim
-
-\section hg_compile How to Compile the Source from the Repository
-
-You can compile the code from the repository similarly to the packaged
-version, but you will need to run <b><tt>autoreconf -vif</tt></b>
-(or <b><tt>./bootstrap</tt></b> in some older environment) before
-<tt>./configure</tt>. See <tt>./configure --help</tt> for options.
-For bootstrapping you will need the following tools:
-
- - <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/">automake</a> (1.7 or newer)
- - <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/">autoconf</a> (2.59 or newer)
- - <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/">libtool</a>
- - <a href="http://pkgconfig.freedesktop.org/">pkgconfig</a>
-
-To generate the documentation, run <tt>make html</tt>.
-You will need <a href="http://www.doxygen.org/">Doxygen</a> for this.
