+/*! \page installdox_usage Installdox usage
+
+Installdox is a perl script that is generated by doxygen whenever
+tag files are used (See \c TAGFILES
+in section \ref config_extref)
+or the search engine is enabled (See \c SEARCHENGINE
+in section \ref config_search). The script is
+located in the same directory where the HTML files are located.
+
+Its purpose is to set the location of the external documentation
+for each tag file and to set the correct links to the search engine
+at install time.
+
+Calling \c installdox with option <b>-h</b> at the command line
+will give you a brief description of the usage of the program.
+
+The following options are available:
+<dl>
+<dt><b>-l <tt>\<tagfile\>\@\<location\></tt></b><dd>
+ Each tag file contains information about the files, classes and members
+ documented in a set of HTML files. A user can install these
+ HTML files anywhere on his/her hard disk or web site.
+ Therefore installdox \e requires the location of the
+ documentation for each tag file <tt>\<tagfile\></tt>
+ that is used by doxygen. The location <tt>\<location\></tt> can be
+ an absolute path or a URL.
+
+ \par Notice:
+ Each <tagfile> must be unique and should only be the name of the
+ file, not including the path.
+
+<dt><b>-q</b><dd>
+ When this option is specified, installdox will generate no output other
+ than fatal errors.
+</dl>
+Optionally a list of HTML files may be given.
+These files are scanned and modified if needed.
+If this list is omitted all files in the current directory
+that end with \c .html are used.
+
+The \c installdox script is unique for each generated class browser
+in the sense that it `knows' what tag files are used. It will generate an error if
+the <b>-l</b> option is missing for a tag file or if an invalid tag file
+is given.
