[wpkg-users] User GUI for WPKG-GP

Hey,

i have finished a first draft of the installation and usage guide on the 
github wiki:

https://github.com/sonicnkt/wpkg-gp-client/wiki/Installation-and-Usage


It contains a detailed installation and configuration guide as well as a 
lot of screenshots and descriptions of the GUI in action.


With this i hope everyone who wants it, is able to start testing this on 
their own systems and i can get some first feedback.


I have also updated a few other things but not enough for a new binary 
release, the available version right now should be enough for testing.


Next up on my list is a small guide on how to modify the program (change 
dialogs and help text) as well as adding a small guide on compiling this 
on your own.


If you find any issues  please report them on the github page.


Best Regards,

Nils
