HUGE: Update on documenation.

  • a general skeleton of the documentation is now in place with all the major components of MoleCuilder explained to some extent.
  • some information has been transfered from TRAC (e.g. install procecure) into this doxygen documentation where it is general and not specific to the situation at our institute.
  • Property mode set to 100644

24/** \mainpage MoleCuilder - a molecular set builder
25 *
26 * This is the main page of the Doxygen documentation of \e MoleCuilder. We give
27 * a brief description what the program is intended to do and then branch via
28 * the contents of this documentation into various topics.
29 *
30 * \section about About the Program
31 *
32 * MoleCuilder is a program, written entirely in C++, that enables the
33 * construction of a coordinate set for the atoms making up an molecule. It
34 * allows for both building of simple molecules by adding atom-wise giving bond
35 * angles and distances or absolute coordinates, but also using them as
36 * templates. Regions can be specified and ordered to be filled with a molecule
37 * in a certain manner. Greater conglomerations of molecules can be tesselated
38 * and recognized as a region themselves to be subsequently surrounded by other
39 * (surface solvated) molecules. In the end, MoleCuilder allows the construction
40 * of arbitrary nano structures, whether they be crystalline or amorphic in
41 * nature.
42 *
43 * For copyright see \ref copyright.
44 *
45 * \section idea The central idea behind the program
46 *
47 * What are the central ideas?
48 *
49 * - Testedness: See \ref tests-policy which is meant \e seriously. Nothing is
50 * worse than one version behaving different to the next with respect to
51 * output.
52 * - Re-usability: Every piece of functionality should be easy to re-use at
53 * someplace else. Say no to specialized one-purpose scripts, say yes to
54 * a LEGO-like system of building your world.
55 * - Extendability: It's easy to add a new piece to the code. And it is even
56 * more so, if you have read this documentation and know what's all already
57 * in place.
58 * - Userfriendliness: Every Action can be undone, every Action gives lots
59 * of output (if desired) to tell you what's going on. It's easy to save
60 * files in between. There are also three kinds of GUIs, each of which
61 * have the same functionality.
62 *
