On:

libs/xpressive/proto/doc/html/boost_proto/user_s_guide/pattern_matching_and_meta_grammars.html

under:

   Other Valid Patterns

an argument to and_ is called an "alternate".  Shouldn't that term just
be used for the arguments to or_?  Maybe the phrase:

   each argument of the and_ must match in order
   for the and_ to match

would be clearer.
