I think we should merge my proposed changes into this file. Can you copy them to your repo?

Not 100% sure about the MD syntax here. I usually use * instead of -. But it seems to work this way too. @ignotus666 do you know what the correct way of generating a list is?

Either one seems to work but I will change to * if that's the convention here.

Sorry, I don't really know much about this, but AFAIK in other documents (e.g. software manual) hyphens are used for bullet points, ** for bold and ### for larger font bold.

Ok, so probably both are correct.

While setting this up for the first time I ran into a couple of snags, so I thought I would update the documentation to help others who tread this path.
Qt setup requires selection of components under a particular version, so I added details about how to find those.
The destination path for the ASIO SDK files was incorrect, I fixed that.
Added license info for Qt, since there is also a commercial version available and that was a bit confusing.
The first time you load the project in Qt you need to configure the kit for the project, I added that.
Also added links to a few of the relevant sites, including Visual Studio and a direct link for the ASIO SDK download.
