Subject: [boost] [quickbook] issues writing the documentation for has_operator_xxx

I am trying to write the documentation of the operator traits using quickbook.

You can have a look at it here:
http://www.boostpro.com/vault/index.php?action=downloadfile&filename=type_traits.tar.bz2&directory=Extension&
untar and open type_traits/libs/type_traits/doc/html/boost_typetraits/category/value_traits/operators.html

I have encountered some issues:

* syntax highlighting is not working (c++ code is not in color, just
in courrier font)

* tables have no lines around cells, header has no special formatting
as in the documentation of quickbook

* table columns are two large because they adjust to their content.
I would like to have some new lines inside some cells (in particular
header cells) but the only way I found was to have a new paragraph
which creates huge vertical space between lines.
In fact, the best would be to set the column width but I did not find
how to do that.

* I was not able to put macros in table captions.

* `code` is not recognized in table caption

Maybe somebody could help me,

Apart from that, quickbook is easy to use and the documentation is
easy to follow.

Regards,

Frédéric
