+[section Number of Arguments]
+
+This implementation supports function objects with up to nine arguments. This
+is an implementation detail, not an inherent limitation of the design.
+
+[endsect]
+
+[section:stdcall `__stdcall`, `__cdecl`, `__fastcall`, and `pascal` Support]
+
+Some platforms allow several types of (member) functions that differ by their
+calling convention (the rules by which the function is invoked: how are
+arguments passed, how is the return value handled, and who cleans up the stack
+ - if any.)
+
+For example, Windows API functions and COM interface member functions use a
+calling convention known as `__stdcall`. Borland VCL components use
+`__fastcall`. Mac toolbox functions use a `pascal` calling convention.
+
+To use `bind` with `__stdcall` functions, `#define` the macro
+`BOOST_BIND_ENABLE_STDCALL` before including `<boost/bind.hpp>`.
+
+To use `bind` with `__stdcall` member functions, `#define` the macro
+`BOOST_MEM_FN_ENABLE_STDCALL` before including `<boost/bind.hpp>`.
+
+To use `bind` with `__fastcall` functions, `#define` the macro
+`BOOST_BIND_ENABLE_FASTCALL` before including `<boost/bind.hpp>`.
+
+To use `bind` with `__fastcall` member functions, `#define` the macro
+`BOOST_MEM_FN_ENABLE_FASTCALL` before including `<boost/bind.hpp>`.
+
+To use `bind` with `pascal` functions, `#define` the macro
+`BOOST_BIND_ENABLE_PASCAL` before including `<boost/bind.hpp>`.
+
+To use `bind` with `__cdecl` member functions, `#define` the macro
+`BOOST_MEM_FN_ENABLE_CDECL` before including `<boost/bind.hpp>`.
+
+[*It is best to define these macros in the project options, via `-D` on the
+command line, or as the first line in the translation unit (.cpp file) where
+`bind` is used.] Not following this rule can lead to obscure errors when a
+header includes `bind.hpp` before the macro has been defined.

+
+[section `visit_each` support]
+
+Function objects returned by `bind` support the experimental and undocumented,
+as of yet, `visit_each` enumeration interface.
+
+See [@../../bind_visitor.cpp bind_visitor.cpp] for an example.
