+
+ \section intro Introduction
+
+  Welcome to the irrXML API documentation.
+  Here you'll find any information you'll need to develop applications with
+  irrXML. If you look for a tutorial on how to start, take a look at the \ref irrxmlexample,
+  at the homepage of irrXML at <A HREF="http://xml.irrlicht3d.org" >xml.irrlicht3d.org</A> 
+  or into the SDK in the directory \example.
+ 
+  irrXML is intended to be a high speed and easy-to-use XML Parser for C++, and
+  this documentation is an important part of it. If you have any questions or
+  suggestions, just send a email to the author of the engine, Nikolaus Gebhardt
+  (niko (at) irrlicht3d.org). For more informations about this parser, see \ref history.
+
+  \section features Features
+
+  irrXML provides forward-only, read-only 
+     access to a stream of non validated XML data. It was fully implemented by
+	 Nikolaus Gebhardt. Its current features are:
+
+	 - It it fast as lighting and has very low memory usage. It was 
+	   developed with the intention of being used in 3D games, as it already has been.
+	 - irrXML is very small: It only consists of 60 KB of code and can be added easily
+	   to your existing project.
+	 - Of course, it is platform independent and works with lots of compilers.
+	 - It is able to parse ASCII, UTF-8, UTF-16 and UTF-32 text files, both in 
+	   little and big endian format. 
+	 - Independent of the input file format, the parser can return all strings in ASCII, UTF-8,
+	   UTF-16 and UTF-32 format. 
+	 - With its optional file access abstraction it has the advantage that it can read not
+	   only from files but from any type of data (memory, network, ...). For example when 
+	   used with the Irrlicht Engine, it directly reads from compressed .zip files. 
+	 - Just like the Irrlicht Engine for which it was originally created, it is extremely easy 
+	   to use.
+	 - It has no external dependencies, it does not even need the STL. 
+
+	 Although irrXML has some strenghts, it currently also has the following limitations:
+
+	 - The input xml file is not validated and assumed to be correct. 
+
+    \section irrxmlexample Example
+
+    The following code demonstrates the basic usage of irrXML. A simple xml
+	file like this is parsed:
+    \code
+	<?xml version="1.0"?>
+	<config>
+		<!-- This is a config file for the mesh viewer -->
+		<model file="dwarf.dea" />
+		<messageText caption="Irrlicht Engine Mesh Viewer">
+		Welcome to the Mesh Viewer of the &quot;Irrlicht Engine&quot;.
+		</messageText>
+	</config>
+	\endcode
+
+	The code for parsing this file would look like this:
+	\code
+	#include <irrXML.h>
+	using namespace irr; // irrXML is located in the namespace irr::io
+	using namespace io;
+
+	#include <string> // we use STL strings to store data in this example
+
+	void main()
+	{
+		// create the reader using one of the factory functions
+
+		IrrXMLReader* xml = createIrrXMLReader("config.xml");
+
+		// strings for storing the data we want to get out of the file
+		std::string modelFile;
+		std::string messageText;
+		std::string caption;
+
+		// parse the file until end reached
+
+		while(xml && xml->read())
+		{
+			switch(xml->getNodeType())
+			{
+			case EXN_TEXT:
+				// in this xml file, the only text which occurs is the messageText
+				messageText = xml->getNodeData();
+				break;
+			case EXN_ELEMENT:
+				{
+					if (!strcmp("model", xml->getNodeName()))
+						modelFile = xml->getAttributeValue("file");
+					else
+					if (!strcmp("messageText", xml->getNodeName()))
+						caption = xml->getAttributeValue("caption");
+				}
+				break;
+			}
+		}
+
+		// delete the xml parser after usage
+		delete xml;
+	}
+	\endcode
+
+	\section howto How to use
+
+	Simply add the source files in the /src directory of irrXML to your project. Done.
+
+	\section license License
+
+	The irrXML license is based on the zlib license. Basicly, this means you can do with
+	irrXML whatever you want:

+
+	3. This notice may not be removed or altered from any source distribution.
+
+	\section history History
+
+	As lots of references in this documentation and the source show, this xml 
+	parser has originally been a part of the 
+	<A HREF="http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net" >Irrlicht Engine</A>. But because
+	the parser has become very useful with the latest release, people asked for a 
+	separate version of it, to be able to use it in non Irrlicht projects. With
+	irrXML 1.0, this has now been done.
