-This is a list of Frequently Asked Questions regarding this Qt release.
-
-Q: I'm using a Unix system and I downloaded the Zip package. However, when I try
-to run the configure script, I get the following error message:
-"bash: ./configure: /bin/sh^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory"
-A: The problem here is converting files from Windows style line endings (CRLF)
-to Unix style line endings (LF). To avoid this problem, uncompress the file
-again and give the option "-a" to unzip, which will then add the correct line
-endings.
-
-Q: I'm running Windows XP and I downloaded the qt-win-eval-%VERSION%-vs2008.exe
-version of Qt. However, when I try to run the examples I get an error saying:
-"The application failed to start because the application configuration is
-incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.". I reinstalled
-the package but the error persists. What am I doing wrong?
-A: The problem is an incorrect version of the CRT. Visual studio requires CRT90
-while Windows XP comes with CRT80. To solve this problem, please install the
-2008 CRT redistributable package from Microsoft.

+ \list
+ \o If you download a Zip source package, you will need to convert
+ Windows-style line endings (CR/LF) to Unix-style line-endings (LF) when
+ you uncompress the package. To do this, give the "-a" option when you
+ run the "unzip' command.
+
+ If you fail to supply the "-a" option when unzipping the package, you
+ will see the following error message when you attempt to execute the
+ configure command:

+ \o If running the qt-win-eval-%VERSION%-vs2008.exe package on a Windows XP
+ system, you may encounter the following error message:
+ "The application failed to start because the application configuration
+ is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.".
+
+ This error occurs because the version of the CRT component on the
+ system is incorrect. Visual Studio 2008 requires CRT90 while Windows
+ XP comes with CRT80. To solve this problem, please install the 2008 CRT
+ redistributable package from Microsoft.
