To which Boost library does property_tree belong? Is it Boost Property  
Map? I found a file propert_tree_rev5.zip in the Vault but it has been  
uploaded two years ago?

Yes, that's what I meant. Even if I can create my own parse function it  
won't help me if the file format I parse can't be represented by the  
storage used by Boost.ProgramOptions. But I guess the storage can't be as  
much generalized that someone who wants to use any file format X can  
create a parser for Boost.ProgramOptions, too.
