-          To generate the documentation locally on your

-         on your machine. If not, you can still work with the library and
-         use the documentation provided on our homepage for reference.
-          In order to generate inheritance graphs for classes, doxygen
-          can use the <code>dot</code> program, which is part of the
-         <a href="http://www.graphviz.org" target="_top">GraphViz</a>
-          package. If this program is not available, then doxygen attempts to

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.
