+# This toolset defines a generator to translate QuickBook to BoostBook. It can
+# be used to generate nice (!) user documentation in different formats
+# (pdf/html/...), from a single text file with simple markup.
+#
+# The toolset defines the QUICKBOOK type (file extension 'qbk') and
+# a QUICKBOOK to XML (BOOSTBOOK) generator.
+#
+#
+# ===========================================================================
+# Q & A
+# ===========================================================================
+#
+# If you don't know what this is all about, some Q & A will hopefully get you
+# up to speed with QuickBook and this toolset.
+#
+#
+# What is QuickBook ?
+#
+# QuickBook is a WikiWiki style documentation tool geared towards C++
+# documentation using simple rules and markup for simple formatting tasks.
+# QuickBook extends the WikiWiki concept. Like the WikiWiki, QuickBook
+# documents are simple text files. A single QuickBook document can
+# generate a fully linked set of nice HTML and PostScript/PDF documents
+# complete with images and syntax-colorized source code.
+#
+#
+# Where can I get QuickBook ?
+#
+# Quickbook can be found in Boost's repository, under the tools/quickbook
+# directory it was added there on Jan 2005, some time after the release of
+# Boost v1.32.0 and has been an integral part of the Boost distribution
+# since v1.33.
+#
+# Here's a link to the SVN repository:
+# https://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/trunk/tools/quickbook
+#
+# And to QuickBook's QuickBook-generated docs:
+# http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/release/tools/quickbook/index.html
+#
+#
+# How do I use QuickBook and this toolset in my projects ?
+#
+# The minimal example is:
+#
+# using boostbook ;
+# import quickbook ;
+#
+# boostbook my_docs : my_docs_source.qbk ;
+#
+# where my_docs is a target name and my_docs_source.qbk is a QuickBook
+# file. The documentation format to be generated is determined by the
+# boostbook toolset. By default html documentation should be generated,
+# but you should check BoostBook's docs to be sure.
+#
+#
+# What do I need ?
+#
+# You should start by setting up the BoostBook toolset. Please refer to
+# boostbook.jam and the BoostBook documentation for information on how to
+# do this.
+#
+# A QuickBook executable is also needed. The toolset will generate this
+# executable if it can find the QuickBook sources. The following
+# directories will be searched:
+#
+# BOOST_ROOT/tools/quickbook/
+# BOOST_BUILD_PATH/../../quickbook/
+#
+# (BOOST_ROOT and BOOST_BUILD_PATH are environment variables)
+#
+# If QuickBook sources are not found the toolset will then try to use
+# the shell command 'quickbook'.
+#
+#
+# How do I provide a custom QuickBook executable ?
+#
+# You may put the following in your user-config.jam or site-config.jam:
+#
+# using quickbook : /path/to/quickbook ;
+#
+# or, if 'quickbook' can be found in your PATH,
+#
+# using quickbook : quickbook ;
+#
+#
+# For convenience three alternatives are tried to get a QuickBook executable:
+#
+# 1. If the user points us to the a QuickBook executable, that is used.
+#
+# 2. Otherwise, we search for the QuickBook sources and compile QuickBook
+# using the default toolset.
+#
+# 3. As a last resort, we rely on the shell for finding 'quickbook'.
