+<para>This parameter has a structured value. It is a table of space-delimited
+path/value pairs. Each path identifies some element in the source document
+using a restricted subset of XPath (only the implicit child axis, no wildcards,
+no predicates). Paths can be either relative or absolute.</para>
+
+<para>When processing a particular element, the stylesheets consult this table to
+determine if a ToC (or LoT(s)) should be generated.</para>
+
+<para>For example, consider the entry:</para>
+
+<screen>book toc,figure</screen>
+
+<para>This indicates that whenever a <tag>book</tag> is formatted, a
+Table Of Contents and a List of Figures should be generated. Similarly,</para>
+
+<screen>/chapter toc</screen>
+
+<para>indicates that whenever a document <emphasis>that has a root
+of</emphasis> <tag>chapter</tag> is formatted, a Table of
+Contents should be generated. The entry <literal>chapter</literal> would match
+all chapters, but <literal>/chapter</literal> matches only <tag>chapter</tag>
+document elements.</para>
+
+<para>Generally, the longest match wins. So, for example, if you want to distinguish
+articles in books from articles in parts, you could use these two entries:</para>
+
+<screen>book/article toc,figure
+part/article toc</screen>
+
+<para>Note that an article in a part can never match a <literal>book/article</literal>,
+so if you want nothing to be generated for articles in parts, you can simply leave
+that rule out.</para>
+
+<para>If you want to leave the rule in, to make it explicit that you're turning
+something off, use the value <quote>nop</quote>. For example, the following
+entry disables ToCs and LoTs for articles:</para>
+
+<screen>article nop</screen>
+
+<para>Do not simply leave the word <quote>article</quote> in the file
+without a matching value. That'd be just begging the silly little
+path/value parser to get confused.</para>
+
+<para>Section ToCs are further controlled by the
+<parameter>generate.section.toc.level</parameter> parameter.
+For a given section level to have a ToC, it must have both an entry in
+<parameter>generate.toc</parameter> and be within the range enabled by
+<parameter>generate.section.toc.level</parameter>.</para>
