cleanup, and just do not like pdfs
Also, needed to understand Byzantine fault tolerant paxos better.

Still do not.

<p>pre-requisite, Pandoc to build the html documentation from the markdown files.</p>
<p>Windows pre-requisites: Visual Studio and git-bash</p>
<p>To obtain the source code from which the project can be built, including
this README, from the bash command line (git-bash in windows).</p>
<pre class="bash2"><code>git clone missing url
cd wallet
./winConfigure.sh</code></pre>
<p>To configure and build the required third party libraries in windows, then
build the program and run unit test for the first time, launch the Visual
Studio X64 native tools command prompt in the cloned directory, then:</p>
<pre class="bat"><code>winConfigure.bat</code></pre>
<p>winConfigure.bat also configures the repository you just created to use
<code>.gitconfig</code> in the repository, causing git to to implement GPG signed
commits because <a href="./docs/contributor_code_of_conduct.html#code-will-be-cryptographically-signed" target="_blank" title="Contributor Code of Conduct">cryptographic software is under attack</a> from NSA
entryists, and shills, who seek to introduce backdoors.</p>
<p>This may be inconvenient if you do not have <code>gpg</code> installed and set up.</p>
<p><code>.gitconfig</code> adds several git aliases:</p>
<ol type="1">
<li><code>git lg</code> to display the gpg trust information for the last four commits.
For this to be useful you need to import the repository public key
<code>public_key.gpg</code> into gpg, and locally sign that key.</li>
<li><code>git fixws</code> to standardise white space to the project standards</li>
<li><code>git graph</code> to graph the commit tree</li>
<li><code>git alias</code> to display the git aliases.</li>
</ol>

<p>To build the documentation in its intended html form from the markdown
files, execute the bash script file <code>docs/mkdocs.sh</code>, in an environment where
<code>pandoc</code> is available. On Windows, if Git Bash and Pandoc has been
installed, you should be able to run a shell file in bash by double clicking on it.</p>

it to be apparent what it would do if it did work.</p>
