  * This is the documentation for the library interface of wimlib 1.7.0, a C
  * library for creating, modifying, extracting, and mounting files in the
  * Windows Imaging Format.  This documentation is intended for developers only.
  * If you have installed wimlib and want to know how to use the @b wimlib-imagex
- * program, please see the README file or manual pages.

- * wimlib uses the GNU autotools, so, on UNIX-like systems, it should be easy to
- * install with <code>configure && make && sudo make install</code>; however,
- * please see the README for more information about installing it.
+ * @subsection UNIX
  *
- * To use wimlib in your program after installing it, include wimlib.h and link
- * your program with @c -lwim.
+ * Download the source code from <a
+ * href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/wimlib/files">http://sourceforge.net/projects/wimlib/files</a>.
+ * Install the library by running <c>configure && make && sudo make install</c>.
+ * See the README for information about configuration options.  To use wimlib in
+ * your program after installing it, include wimlib.h and link your program with
+ * <c>-lwim</c>.
  *
- * As of wimlib 1.5.0, wimlib.h is also compatible with C++.
+ * @subsection Windows
  *
- * Note: before calling any other function declared in wimlib.h,
- * wimlib_global_init() can (and in some cases, must) be called.  See its
- * documentation for more details.
+ * Download the Windows binary distribution with the appropriate architecture
+ * (i686 or x86_64 --- also called "x86" and "amd64" respectively) from <a
+ * href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/wimlib/files">http://sourceforge.net/projects/wimlib/files</a>.
+ * Link your program with the libwim-15.dll file.  Make sure to also download
+ * the source code so you can get wimlib.h, as it is not included in the binary
+ * distribution.  If you need to access the DLL from other programming
+ * languages, note that the calling convention is "cdecl".

+ * @section sec_examples Examples
+ *
+ * Several examples are located in the <a
+ * href="http://sourceforge.net/p/wimlib/code/ci/master/tree/examples">examples</a>

+ * capabilities of wimlib.
