install notes Re: announcing QGIS3 plugin to import survex .3d files

[Warren Family]

Sorry...!  I haven't had the time to jump through the hoops to get this 
officially listed, but here's a summary of the install notes:

Download this:
https://github.com/patrickbwarren/qgis3-survex-import/archive/master.zip
Unzip the downloaded zip file - you should see a folder called 
'survex_import'

In QGIS3 go to 'Settings → User Profiles → Open Active Profile Folder'
 From here, navigate to python folder, then to the plugins sub-folder of 
that.

Copy the 'survex_import' folder from above zip file into this 
python/plugins folder
(ie copy the folder itself, so that there is a sub-subfolder called 
survex_import in python/plugins).

Then restart QGIS3, go to the plugins menu item, and you should be able 
to enable the Import .3d file plugin under 'installed plugins'.

In the same 'master.zip' there is a subfolder with a processed survex 
data set DowProv.3d, that you can try importing (it is fully 
georeferenced with the appropriate *cs commands).
