Drop automake build support.
Add basic cmake build instructions. Delete the NEWS file. Rework of the README. The man folder has been moved into the doc folder for consistency with what have been done so far. The html pages have been moved into the doc folder as well. Some cosmetics. Signed-off-by: gregory guy <gregory-tde@laposte.net>

-KDE supports networktransparency via TDEIO-slaves. <span class="application">KDiff3</span> uses this
-for reading input files and for scanning directories.
-This means that you can specify files and directories on local and
-remote resources via URLs.
-</p><p>
-Example:
-</p><p>
-<pre class="screen">
- <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span><strong class="command">kdiff3</strong></span></span> test.cpp ftp://ftp.faraway.org/test.cpp
- <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="command"><span><strong class="command">kdiff3</strong></span></span> tar:/home/hacker/archive.tar.gz/dir ./dir
-</pre>
-</p><p>The first line compares a local file with a file on an FTP-server. The second line
-compares a directory within an compressed archive with a local directory.
-</p><p>
-Other TDEIO-slaves that are interesting are:
-</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>Files from the WWW (http:),</p></li><li><p>Files from the FTP (ftp:),</p></li><li><p>Encrypted file transfer (fish:, sftp:),</p></li><li><p>Windows-ressources (smb:),</p></li><li><p>Local files (file:),</p></li></ul></div><p>
-Other things that are possible, but probably less useful are:
-</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>Man-pages (man:),</p></li><li><p>Info-pages (info:),</p></li></ul></div></div><div class="sect2" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="id2569517"></a>How To Write URLs</h3></div></div></div><p>
- An URL has a different syntax compared with paths for local files and directories.
- Some things should be considered:
-</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>
- A path can be relative and can contain "." or "..". This is not possible for URLs
- which are always absolute.
-</p></li><li><p>
- Special characters must be written with "escaping". ("#"-&gt;"%23", space-&gt;"%20", etc.)
- E.g. A file with the name "/#foo#" would have the URL "file:/%23foo%23".
-</p></li><li><p>
- When URLs don't work as expected, try to open them in Konqueror first.
-</p></li></ul></div></div><div class="sect2" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="id2569553"></a>Capabilities of TDEIO-Slaves</h3></div></div></div><p>
- Networktransparency has one drawback: Not all ressources have the same cababilities.
-</p><p>
- Sometimes this is due to the file system of the server, sometimes due to the protocol.
- Here is a short list of restrictions:
-</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>
- Sometimes there is no support for links.
-</p></li><li><p>
- Or there is no way to distinguish if a link points to a file or a directory; always
- assuming a file. (ftp:, sftp:).
-</p></li><li><p>
- Can't always determine the filesize.
-</p></li><li><p>
- Limited support for permissions.
-</p></li><li><p>
- No possibility to modify permissions or modification time, so permissions or time
- of a copy will differ from the original. (See the option "Trust the size".)
- (To modify permissions or modification time is only possible for local files.)
