+After triage has been started you have to load daca results from a file via the "Load from file"
+button or from the clipboard via the "Load from clipboard" button.
+The file or clipboard text must contain the package URL line beginning with "ftp://" and the
+Cppcheck messages.
+When the results data has been parsed successfully you can see a list of Cppcheck messages directly
+beneath the "Load ..." buttons. Double-click any entry to let the tool show the source code and jump
+to and mark the corresponding line. If the package is not found it is downloaded and extracted
 automatically. So after the first double-click it is normal that it takes some time until the
 source code is shown.
