- Originally named QuickDoc, this funky tool that never dies evolved into a funkier

- <ulink url="http://www.boost.org/doc/html/boostbook.html">BoostBook</ulink>
- instead of HTML. The <ulink url="http://www.boost.org/doc/html/boostbook.html">BoostBook</ulink>

- an SGML or XML based format for describing documentation.

- <para>
- 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.

- <para>
- A QuickBook document is composed of one or more blocks. An example of a block
- is the paragraph or a C++ code snippet. Some blocks have special mark-ups.
- Blocks, except code snippets which have their own grammar (C++ or Python),
- are composed of one or more phrases. A phrase can be a simple contiguous run
- of characters. Phrases can have special mark-ups. Marked up phrases can recursively
- contain other phrases, but cannot contain blocks. A terminal is a self contained
- block-level or phrase-level element that does not nest anything.
- </para>
- <para>
- Blocks, in general, are delimited by two end-of-lines (the block terminator).
- Phrases in each block cannot contain a block terminator. This way, syntax errors
- such as un-matched closing brackets do not go haywire and corrupt anything
- past a single block.

- <para>
- Preformatted code simply starts with a space or a tab (See <link linkend="quickbook.syntax.block.code">Code</link>).
- However, such a simple syntax cannot be used as phrase elements in lists
- (See <link linkend="quickbook.syntax.block.lists.ordered_lists">Ordered
- lists</link> and <link linkend="quickbook.syntax.block.lists.unordered_lists">Unordered
- lists</link>), tables (See <link linkend="quickbook.syntax.block.tables">Tables</link>),
- etc. Inline code (see above) can. The problem is, inline code does not
- allow formatting with newlines, spaces, and tabs. These are lost.
- </para>
- <para>
- We provide a phrase level markup that is a mix between the two. By using
- the double-tick, instead of the single-tick, we are telling QuickBook to
- use preformatted blocks of code. Example:
- </para>
-
-<programlisting>``
- #include <iostream>
-
- int main()
- {
- std::cout << "Hello, World!" << std::endl;
- return 0;
- }
-``
-</programlisting>
- <para>
- will generate:

- If a document contains more than one type of source code then the source

- Inside code, code blocks and inline code, QuickBook does not allow any

- need to switch back to QuickBook markup inside code, you can do so using
- a language specific <emphasis>escape-back</emphasis> delimiter. In C++
- and Python, the delimiter is the double tick (back-quote): "``"
- and "``". Example:
- </para>
-
-<programlisting>void ``[@http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foo#Foo.2C_Bar_and_Baz foo]``()

- <para>
- Templates provide a more versatile text substitution mechanism. Templates
- come in handy when you need to create parameterizable, multi-line, boilerplate
- text that you specify once and expand many times. Templates accept one
- or more arguments. These arguments act like place-holders for text replacement.
- Unlike simple macros, which are limited to phrase level markup, templates
- can contain block level markup (e.g. paragraphs, code blocks and tables).

- </bridgehead>
- <para>
- The template body can be just about any QuickBook block or phrase. There

- templates are of the form:
- </para>
-
-<programlisting>[template sample[arg1 arg2...argN] replacement text... ]

- Block templates are of the form:
- </para>
-
-<programlisting>[template sample[arg1 arg2...argN]
-replacement text...
-]
-</programlisting>
- <para>
- The basic rule is as follows: if a newline immediately follows the argument
- list, then it is a block template, otherwise, it is a phrase template.
- Phrase templates are typically expanded as part of phrases. Like macros,
- block level elements are not allowed in phrase templates.

- You expand a template this way:

-
-<programlisting>[person James Bond..39..Spy]
-[person Santa Clause..87..Big Red Fatso]

- </para>
- <caution>
- <para>
- A word of caution: Templates are recursive. A template can call another
- template or even itself, directly or indirectly. There are no control
- structures in QuickBook (yet) so this will always mean infinite recursion.
- QuickBook can detect this situation and report an error if recursion
- exceeds a certain limit.
- </para>

- The explicit <link linkend="quickbook.syntax.block.templates.template_expansion">template

- have to use obscure naming conventions like double underscores (e.g.
- __alpha__) to avoid unwanted macro replacement.
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- The template is expanded at the point where it is invoked. A macro is
- expanded immediately at its point of declaration. This is subtle and
- can cause a slight difference in behavior especially if you refer to
- other macros and templates in the body.
- </listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- <para>
- The empty brackets after the template identifier (<literal>alpha[]</literal>)
- indicates no arguments. If the template body does not look like a template
- argument list, we can elide the empty brackets. Example:
- </para>
-
-<programlisting>[template aristotle_quote Aristotle: [*['Education is the best provision
-for the journey to old age.]]]
-</programlisting>
- <para>
- Expanding:
- </para>
-
-<programlisting>Here's a quote from [aristotle_quote].
-</programlisting>
- <para>
- We have:
- </para>
- <para>
- Here's a quote from Aristotle: <emphasis role="bold"><emphasis>Education
- is the best provision for the journey to old age.</emphasis></emphasis>.
- </para>
- <para>
- The disadvantage is that you can't avoid the space between the template
- identifier, <code><phrase role="identifier">aristotle_quote</phrase></code>,
- and the template body "Aristotle...". This space will be part
- of the template body. If that space is unwanted, use empty brackets or
- use the space escape: "<code><phrase role="special">\</phrase> </code>".
- Example:
- </para>
-
-<programlisting>[template tag\ _tag]
-</programlisting>
- <para>
- Then expanding:
- </para>
-
-<programlisting>`struct` x[tag];
-</programlisting>
- <para>
- We have:
- </para>
- <para>
- <code><phrase role="keyword">struct</phrase></code> x_tag;
- </para>
- <para>
- You have a couple of ways to do it. I personally prefer the explicit empty

- Arguments</link>
- </bridgehead>
- <para>
- As mentioned, arguments are separated by the double dot <literal>".."</literal>.
- If there are less arguments passed than expected, QuickBook attempts to
- break the last argument into two or more arguments following this logic:
- </para>
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- Break the last argument into two, at the first space found (<literal>'',
- '\n', \t' or '\r'</literal>).

- Repeat until there are enough arguments or if there are no more spaces
- found (in which case, an error is reported).
- </listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- <para>
- For example:
- </para>
-
-<programlisting>[template simple[a b c d] [a][b][c][d]]
-[simple w x y z]
-</programlisting>
- <para>
- will produce:
- </para>
- <para>
- wxyz
- </para>
- <para>
- "w x y z" is initially treated as a single argument because we
- didn't supply any <literal>".."</literal> separators. However,
- since <literal>simple</literal> expects 4 arguments, "w x y z"
- is broken down iteratively (applying the logic above) until we have "w",
- "x", "y" and "z".
- </para>
- <para>
- QuickBook only tries to get the arguments it needs. For example:
- </para>
-
-<programlisting>[simple w x y z trail]
-</programlisting>
- <para>
- will produce:
- </para>
- <para>
- wxyz trail
- </para>
- <para>
- The arguments being: "w", "x", "y" and "z
- trail".
- </para>
- <para>
- It should be obvious now that for simple arguments with no spaces, we can
- get by without separating the arguments with <literal>".."</literal>
- separators. It is possible to combine <literal>".."</literal>
- separators with the argument passing simplification presented above. Example:
- </para>
-
-<programlisting>[simple what do you think ..m a n?]

- <title><link linkend="quickbook.syntax.block.include">Include</link></title>
- <para>
- You can include one QuickBook file from another. The syntax is simply:
- </para>
-
-<programlisting>[include someother.qbk]
-</programlisting>
- <para>
- The included file will be processed as if it had been cut and pasted into
- the current document, with the following exceptions:
- </para>
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- The __FILENAME__ predefined macro will reflect the name of the file currently being
- processed.
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- Any macros defined in the included file are scoped to that file.
- </listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- <para>
- The <literal>[include]</literal> directive lets you specify a document
- id to use for the included file. When this id is not explicitly specified,
- the id defaults to the filename ("someother", in the example
- above). You can specify the id like this:
- </para>
-
-<programlisting>[include:someid someother.qbk]
-</programlisting>
- <para>
- All auto-generated anchors will use the document id as a unique prefix.
- So for instance, if there is a top section in someother.qbk named "Intro",
- the named anchor for that section will be "someid.intro", and
- you can link to it with <literal>[link someid.intro The Intro]</literal>.
- </para>

- <para>
- When documenting code, you'd surely need to present code from actual source
- files. While it is possible to copy some code and paste them in your QuickBook
- file, doing so is error prone and the extracted code in the documentation
- tends to get out of sync with the actual code as the code evolves. The
- problem, as always, is that once documentation is written, the tendency
- is for the docs to languish in the archives without maintenance.

- You can effortlessly import code snippets from source code into your QuickBook.
- The following illustrates how this is done:
- </para>
-
-<programlisting>[import ../test/stub.cpp]
-[foo]
-[bar]
-</programlisting>
- <para>
- The first line:
- </para>
-
-<programlisting>[import ../test/stub.cpp]
-</programlisting>
- <para>
- collects specially marked-up code snippets from <ulink url="../../test/stub.cpp">stub.cpp</ulink>
- and places them in your QuickBook file as virtual templates. Each of the
- specially marked-up code snippets has a name (e.g. <code><phrase role="identifier">foo</phrase></code>
- and <code><phrase role="identifier">bar</phrase></code> in the example
- above). This shall be the template identifier for that particular code
- snippet. The second and third line above does the actual template expansion:
- </para>
-
-<programlisting>[foo]
-[bar]
-</programlisting>
- <para>
- And the result is:
- </para>
- <para>
- <para>

- <para>
- When building HTML documentation with BoostBook a Boost C++ Libraries header
- is added to the files. When using QuickBook to document projects outside of
- Boost this is not desirable. This behavior can be overridden at the BoostBook
- level by specifying some XSLT options. When using Boost Build version 2 (BBv2)
- this can be achieved by adding parameters to the BoostBook target declaration.

+ Well, QuickBook started as a weekend hack. It was originally intended to be
+ a sample application using <ulink url="http://spirit.sourceforge.net">Spirit</ulink>.
+ What is it? What you are viewing now, this documentation, is autogenerated
+ by QuickBook. These files were generated from one master:

+ Originally named QuickDoc, this funky tool that never dies evolved into a funkier
+ tool thanks to Eric Niebler who resurrected the project making it generate
+ <ulink url="http://www.boost.org/doc/html/boostbook.html">BoostBook</ulink>
+ instead of HTML. The <ulink url="http://www.boost.org/doc/html/boostbook.html">BoostBook</ulink>
+ documentation format is an extension of <ulink url="http://www.docbook.org/">DocBook</ulink>,
+ an SGML or XML based format for describing documentation.

+ <para>
+ 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.

+ <para>
+ A QuickBook document is composed of one or more blocks. An example of a block
+ is the paragraph or a C++ code snippet. Some blocks have special mark-ups.
+ Blocks, except code snippets which have their own grammar (C++ or Python),
+ are composed of one or more phrases. A phrase can be a simple contiguous run
+ of characters. Phrases can have special mark-ups. Marked up phrases can recursively
+ contain other phrases, but cannot contain blocks. A terminal is a self contained
+ block-level or phrase-level element that does not nest anything.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Blocks, in general, are delimited by two end-of-lines (the block terminator).
+ Phrases in each block cannot contain a block terminator. This way, syntax errors
+ such as un-matched closing brackets do not go haywire and corrupt anything
+ past a single block.

+ <title><link linkend="quickbook.syntax.phrase.inline_code">Inline code</link></title>
+ <para>
+ Inlining code in paragraphs is quite common when writing C++ documentation.
+ We provide a very simple markup for this. For example, this:
+ </para>
+
+<programlisting>This text has inlined code `int main() { return 0; }` in it.
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ will generate:
+ </para>

+ role="special">{</phrase> <phrase role="keyword">return</phrase> <phrase
+ role="number">0</phrase><phrase role="special">;</phrase> <phrase role="special">}</phrase></code>
+ in it. The code will be syntax highlighted.
+ </para>
+ <note>
+ <para>
+ We simply enclose the code with the tick: <literal>"`"</literal>, not the
+ single quote: <code><phrase role="string">"'"</phrase></code>.
+ Note too that <literal>`some code`</literal> is preferred over <literal>[^some code]</literal>.

+ <section id="quickbook.syntax.phrase.code_blocks">
+ <title><link linkend="quickbook.syntax.phrase.code_blocks">Code blocks</link></title>
+ <para>
+ Preformatted code simply starts with a space or a tab (See <link linkend="quickbook.syntax.block.code">Code</link>).
+ However, such a simple syntax cannot be used as phrase elements in lists
+ (See <link linkend="quickbook.syntax.block.lists.ordered_lists">Ordered

+ lists</link>), tables (See <link linkend="quickbook.syntax.block.tables">Tables</link>),
+ etc. Inline code (see above) can. The problem is, inline code does not
+ allow formatting with newlines, spaces, and tabs. These are lost.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ We provide a phrase level markup that is a mix between the two. By using
+ the double-tick, instead of the single-tick, we are telling QuickBook to
+ use preformatted blocks of code. Example:
+ </para>
+
+<programlisting>``
+ #include <iostream>
+
+ int main()
+ {
+ std::cout << "Hello, World!" << std::endl;
+ return 0;

+ <para>
+ Headings are often used as an alternative to sections. It is used particularly
+ if you do not want to start a new section. In many cases, however, headings
+ in a particular section is just flat. Example:
+ </para>
+
+<programlisting>[section A]
+[h2 X]
+[h2 Y]
+[h2 Z]
+[endsect]
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ Here we use h2 assuming that section A is the outermost level. If it is
+ placed in an inner level, you'll have to use h3, h4, etc. depending on
+ where the section is. In general, it is the section level plus one. It
+ is rather tedious, however, to scan the section level everytime. If you
+ rewrite the example above as shown below, this will be automatic:
+ </para>
+
+<programlisting>[section A]
+[heading X]
+[heading Y]
+[heading Z]
+[endsect]
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ They work well regardless where you place them. You can rearrange sections

+ with <emphasis>section</emphasis> and <emphasis>heading</emphasis>, you
+ have all you need. <emphasis>h1</emphasis>..<emphasis>h6</emphasis> becomes

+ <para>
+ It's a good idea to use macro identifiers that are distinguishable. For

+ Links (URLS) and images are good candidates for macros. <emphasis role="bold">1</emphasis>)

+ <title><link linkend="quickbook.syntax.block.templates">Templates</link></title>
+ <para>
+ Templates provide a more versatile text substitution mechanism. Templates
+ come in handy when you need to create parameterizable, multi-line, boilerplate
+ text that you specify once and expand many times. Templates accept one
+ or more arguments. These arguments act like place-holders for text replacement.
+ Unlike simple macros, which are limited to phrase level markup, templates
+ can contain block level markup (e.g. paragraphs, code blocks and tables).
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Example template:

+ </para>
+ <para>
+ A template formal argument temporarily hides a template of the same name

+ <bridgehead renderas="sect5">
+ <link linkend="quickbook.syntax.block.templates.template_body">Template
+ Body</link>
+ </bridgehead>
+ <para>
+ The template body can be just about any QuickBook block or phrase. There
+ are actually two forms. Templates may be phrase or block level. Phrase
+ templates are of the form:
+ </para>
+
+<programlisting>[template sample[arg1 arg2...argN] replacement text... ]
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ Block templates are of the form:
+ </para>
+
+<programlisting>[template sample[arg1 arg2...argN]
+replacement text...
+]
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ The basic rule is as follows: if a newline immediately follows the argument
+ list, then it is a block template, otherwise, it is a phrase template.
+ Phrase templates are typically expanded as part of phrases. Like macros,
+ block level elements are not allowed in phrase templates.
+ </para>

+ <bridgehead renderas="sect5">
+ <link linkend="quickbook.syntax.block.templates.template_expansion">Template

+ <para>
+ You expand a template this way:
+ </para>
+
+<programlisting>[template_identifier arg1..arg2..arg3]
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ At template expansion, you supply the actual arguments. The template will
+ be expanded with your supplied arguments. Example:
+ </para>
+
+<programlisting>[person James Bond..39..Spy]
+[person Santa Clause..87..Big Red Fatso]
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ Which will expand to:
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ <para>
+ Hi, my name is James Bond. I am 39 years old. I am a Spy.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Hi, my name is Santa Clause. I am 87 years old. I am a Big Red Fatso.
+ </para>
+ </para>
+ <caution>
+ <para>
+ A word of caution: Templates are recursive. A template can call another
+ template or even itself, directly or indirectly. There are no control
+ structures in QuickBook (yet) so this will always mean infinite recursion.
+ QuickBook can detect this situation and report an error if recursion
+ exceeds a certain limit.
+ </para>
+ </caution>
+ <para>
+ Each actual argument can be a word, a text fragment or just about any
+ <link linkend="quickbook.syntax.phrase">QuickBook phrase</link>. Arguments
+ are separated by the double dot <literal>".."</literal> and terminated
+ by the close parenthesis.

+ <bridgehead renderas="sect5">
+ <link linkend="quickbook.syntax.block.templates.nullary_templates">Nullary
+ Templates</link>
+ </bridgehead>
+ <para>
+ Nullary templates look and act like simple macros. Example:
+ </para>
+
+<programlisting>[template alpha[]'''&#945;''']
+[template beta[]'''&#946;''']
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ Expanding:
+ </para>

+ <para>
+ Some squiggles...<emphasis role="bold">αβ</emphasis>
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ The difference with macros are
+ </para>
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem>
+ The explicit <link linkend="quickbook.syntax.block.templates.template_expansion">template
+ expansion syntax</link>. This is an advantage because, now, we don't
+ have to use obscure naming conventions like double underscores (e.g.
+ __alpha__) to avoid unwanted macro replacement.
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ The template is expanded at the point where it is invoked. A macro is
+ expanded immediately at its point of declaration. This is subtle and
+ can cause a slight difference in behavior especially if you refer to
+ other macros and templates in the body.
+ </listitem>
+ </itemizedlist>
+ <para>
+ The empty brackets after the template identifier (<literal>alpha[]</literal>)
+ indicates no arguments. If the template body does not look like a template
+ argument list, we can elide the empty brackets. Example:
+ </para>
+
+<programlisting>[template aristotle_quote Aristotle: [*['Education is the best provision
+for the journey to old age.]]]
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ Expanding:
+ </para>
+
+<programlisting>Here's a quote from [aristotle_quote].
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ We have:
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Here's a quote from Aristotle: <emphasis role="bold"><emphasis>Education
+ is the best provision for the journey to old age.</emphasis></emphasis>.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ The disadvantage is that you can't avoid the space between the template
+ identifier, <code><phrase role="identifier">aristotle_quote</phrase></code>,
+ and the template body "Aristotle...". This space will be part
+ of the template body. If that space is unwanted, use empty brackets or
+ use the space escape: "<code><phrase role="special">\</phrase> </code>".
+ Example:
+ </para>
+
+<programlisting>[template tag\ _tag]
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ Then expanding:
+ </para>
+
+<programlisting>`struct` x[tag];
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ We have:
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ <code><phrase role="keyword">struct</phrase></code> x_tag;
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ You have a couple of ways to do it. I personally prefer the explicit empty
+ brackets, though.

+ <link linkend="quickbook.syntax.block.templates.simple_arguments">Simple
+ Arguments</link>
+ </bridgehead>
+ <para>
+ As mentioned, arguments are separated by the double dot <literal>".."</literal>.
+ If there are less arguments passed than expected, QuickBook attempts to
+ break the last argument into two or more arguments following this logic:
+ </para>
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem>
+ Break the last argument into two, at the first space found (<literal>'',
+ '\n', \t' or '\r'</literal>).
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ Repeat until there are enough arguments or if there are no more spaces
+ found (in which case, an error is reported).
+ </listitem>
+ </itemizedlist>
+ <para>
+ For example:
+ </para>
+
+<programlisting>[template simple[a b c d] [a][b][c][d]]
+[simple w x y z]
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ will produce:
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ wxyz
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ "w x y z" is initially treated as a single argument because we
+ didn't supply any <literal>".."</literal> separators. However,
+ since <literal>simple</literal> expects 4 arguments, "w x y z"
+ is broken down iteratively (applying the logic above) until we have "w",
+ "x", "y" and "z".
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ QuickBook only tries to get the arguments it needs. For example:
+ </para>
+
+<programlisting>[simple w x y z trail]
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ will produce:
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ wxyz trail
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ The arguments being: "w", "x", "y" and "z
+ trail".
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ It should be obvious now that for simple arguments with no spaces, we can
+ get by without separating the arguments with <literal>".."</literal>
+ separators. It is possible to combine <literal>".."</literal>
+ separators with the argument passing simplification presented above. Example:
+ </para>
+
+<programlisting>[simple what do you think ..m a n?]
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ will produce:

+ <para>
+ You can include one QuickBook file from another. The syntax is simply:
+ </para>
+
+<programlisting>[include someother.qbk]
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ The included file will be processed as if it had been cut and pasted into
+ the current document, with the following exceptions:
+ </para>
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem>
+ The __FILENAME__ predefined macro will reflect the name of the file currently being
+ processed.
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ Any macros defined in the included file are scoped to that file.
+ </listitem>
+ </itemizedlist>
+ <para>
+ The <literal>[include]</literal> directive lets you specify a document
+ id to use for the included file. When this id is not explicitly specified,
+ the id defaults to the filename ("someother", in the example
+ above). You can specify the id like this:
+ </para>
+
+<programlisting>[include:someid someother.qbk]
+</programlisting>
+ <para>
+ All auto-generated anchors will use the document id as a unique prefix.
+ So for instance, if there is a top section in someother.qbk named "Intro",
+ the named anchor for that section will be "someid.intro", and
+ you can link to it with <literal>[link someid.intro The Intro]</literal>.

+ specially marked-up code snippets has a name (e.g. <code><phrase role="identifier">foo</phrase></code>
+ and <code><phrase role="identifier">bar</phrase></code> in the example
+ above). This shall be the template identifier for that particular code
+ snippet. The second and third line above does the actual template expansion:
+ </para>
+
+<programlisting>[foo]

+ </blockquote>
+ <para>
+ When building HTML documentation with BoostBook a Boost C++ Libraries header
+ is added to the files. When using QuickBook to document projects outside of
+ Boost this is not desirable. This behavior can be overridden at the BoostBook
+ level by specifying some XSLT options. When using Boost Build version 2 (BBv2)
+ this can be achieved by adding parameters to the BoostBook target declaration.

-[section:intro Introduction]
-
-[:[*['["Why program by hand in five days what you can spend five years of your
-life automating?]]]
-
--- Terrence Parr, author ANTLR/PCCTS
-]
-
-Well, QuickBook started as a weekend hack. It was originally intended to be a
-sample application using __spirit__. What is it? What you are viewing now, this
-documentation, is autogenerated by QuickBook. These files were generated from
-one master:
-
-[:[@../quickbook.qbk quickbook.qbk]]
-
-Originally named QuickDoc, this funky tool that never dies evolved into a
-funkier tool thanks to Eric Niebler who resurrected the project making it
-generate __boostbook__ instead of HTML. The __boostbook__ documentation format
-is an extension of __docbook__, an SGML or XML based format for describing
-documentation.
-
-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.
-
-Features include:
-
-* generate __boostbook__ xml, to generate HTML, PostScript and PDF
-* simple markup to link to Doxygen-generated entities
-* macro system for simple text substitution
-* simple markup for italics, bold, preformatted, blurbs, code samples,
- tables, URLs, anchors, images, etc.
-* automatic syntax coloring of code samples
-* CSS support
-
-[endsect]
-
-[section:change_log Change Log]
-
-[h3 Version 1.3]
-
-* Quickbook file inclusion \[include\].
-* Better xml output (pretty layout). Check out the generated XML.
-* Regression testing facility: to make sure your document will always be
- compatible (full backward compatibility) regardless of changes to
- QuickBook.
-* Code cleanup and refactoring.
-* Allow phrase markup in the doc-info.
-* Preformatted code blocks via \`\`code\`\` (double ticks) allows code in tables
- and lists, for example.
-* Quickbook versioning; allows full backward compatibility. You have to add
- \[quickbook 1.3\] to the doc-info header to enable the new features. Without
- this, QuickBook will assume that the document is a pre-1.3 document.
-* Better (intuitive) paragraph termination. Some markups may terminate a paragraph.
- Example:``
- [section x]
- blah...
- [endsect]``
-* Fully qualified section and headers. Subsection names are concatenated to the
- ID to avoid clashing. Example: `doc_name.sect_name.sub_sect_name.sub_sub_sect_name`
-* Better   and whitespace handling in code snippets.
-* \[xinclude\] fixes up the relative path to the target XML file when
- input_directory is not the same as the output_directory.
-* Allow untitled tables.
-* Allow phrase markups in section titles.
-* Allow escaping back to QuickBook from code, code blocks and inline code.
-* Footnotes, with the \[footnote This is the footnote\] syntax.
-* Post-processor bug fix for escaped XML code that it does not recognize.
-* Replaceable, with the \[~replacement\] syntax.
-* Generic Headers
-* Code changes to allow full recursion (i.e. Collectors and push/pop functions)
-* Various code cleanup/maintenance
-* Templates!
-* \[conceptref\] for referencing BoostBook <concept> entities.
-* Allow escape of spaces. The escaped space is removed from the output. Syntax:
- `\ `.
-* Nested comments are now allowed.
-* Quickbook blocks can nest inside comments.
-* __import__ facility.
-* Callouts on imported code
-* Simple markups can now span a whole block.
-* __blurbs__, __admonitions__ and table cells (see __tables__) may now
- contain paragraphs.
-* `\n` and `[br]` are now deprecated.
-
-[endsect]
-
-[section:syntax Syntax Summary]
-
-A QuickBook document is composed of one or more blocks. An example of
-a block is the paragraph or a C++ code snippet. Some blocks have
-special mark-ups. Blocks, except code snippets which have their own
-grammar (C++ or Python), are composed of one or more phrases. A phrase
-can be a simple contiguous run of characters. Phrases can have special
-mark-ups. Marked up phrases can recursively contain other phrases, but
-cannot contain blocks. A terminal is a self contained block-level or
-phrase-level element that does not nest anything.
-
-Blocks, in general, are delimited by two end-of-lines (the block terminator).
-Phrases in each block cannot contain a block terminator. This way, syntax errors
-such as un-matched closing brackets do not go haywire and corrupt anything past
-a single block.
-
-[section Comments]
-
-Can be placed anywhere.
-
-[pre
-'''[/ comment (no output generated) ]'''
-]
-
-[/ for testing only... ]
-
-[pre
-'''[/ comments can be nested [/ some more here] ]'''
-]
-
-[/ for testing [/ only ] ]
-
-[pre
-'''[/ Quickbook blocks can nest inside comments. [*Comment this out too!] ]'''
-]
-
-[/ for testing [*only ] ]
-
-[endsect]
-
-[section:phrase Phrase Level Elements]
-
-[section Font Styles]
-
-[pre'''
-['italic], [*bold], [_underline], [^teletype], [-strikethrough]
-''']
-
-will generate:
-
-['italic], [*bold], [_underline], [^teletype], [-strikethrough]
-
-Like all non-terminal phrase level elements, this can of course be nested:
-
-[pre'''
-[*['bold-italic]]
-''']
-
-will generate:
-
-[*['bold-italic]]
-
-[endsect]
-
-[section Replaceable]
-
-When you want content that may or must be replaced by the user, use the syntax:
-
-[pre'''
-[~replacement]
-''']
-
-This will generate:
-
-[~replacement]
-
-[endsect]
-
-[section Quotations]
-
-[pre'''
-["A question that sometimes drives me hazy: am I or are the others crazy?]--Einstein
-''']
-
-will generate:
-
-["A question that sometimes drives me hazy: am I or are the others crazy?]--Einstein
-
-Note the proper left and right quote marks. Also, while you can simply use
-ordinary quote marks like "quoted", our quotation, above, will generate correct
-DocBook quotations (e.g. <quote>quoted</quote>).
-
-Like all phrase elements, quotations may be nested. Example:
-
-[pre'''
-["Here's the rule for bargains: ["Do other men, for they would do you.] That's
-the true business precept.]
-''']
-
-will generate:
-
-["Here's the rule for bargains: ["Do other men, for they would do you.]
-That's the true business precept.]
-
-[endsect]
-[section Simple formatting]
-
-Simple markup for formatting text, common in many applications, is now supported:
-
-[pre'''
-/italic/, *bold*, _underline_, =teletype=
-''']
-
-will generate:
-
-/italic/, *bold*, _underline_, =teletype=
-
-Unlike QuickBook's standard formatting scheme, the rules for simpler
-alternatives are much stricter[footnote Thanks to David Barrett, author of
-[@http://quinthar.com/qwikiwiki/index.php?page=Home Qwiki], for sharing
-these samples and teaching me these obscure formatting rules. I wasn't sure
-at all if __spirit__, being more or less a formal EBNF parser, can handle
-the context sensitivity and ambiguity.].
-
-* Simple markups cannot nest. You can combine a simple markup with a nestable markup.
-* Simple markups cannot contain any other form of quickbook markup.
-* A non-space character must follow the leading markup
-* A non-space character must precede the trailing markup
-* A space or a punctuation must follow the trailing markup
-* If the matching markup cannot be found within a block, the formatting
- will not be applied. This is to ensure that un-matched formatting markups,
- which can be a common mistake, does not corrupt anything past a single block.
- We do not want the rest of the document to be rendered bold just because we
- forgot a trailing '*'. A single block is terminated by two end of lines or
- the close bracket: ']'.
-* A line starting with the star will be interpreted as an unordered list.
- See __unordered_lists__.
-
-[table More Formatting Samples
- [[Markup] [Result]]
- [[[^'''*Bold*''']] [*Bold*]]
- [[[^'''*Is bold*''']] [*Is bold*]]
- [[[^'''* Not bold* *Not bold * * Not bold *''']] [* Not bold* *Not bold * * Not bold *]]
- [[[^'''This*Isn't*Bold (no bold)''']] [This*Isn't*Bold (no bold)]]
- [[[^'''(*Bold Inside*) (parenthesis not bold)''']] [(*Bold Inside*) (parenthesis not bold)]]
- [[[^'''*(Bold Outside)* (parenthesis bold)''']] [*(Bold Outside)* (parenthesis bold)]]
- [[[^'''3*4*5 = 60 (no bold)''']] [3*4*5 = 60 (no bold)]]
- [[[^'''3 * 4 * 5 = 60 (no bold)''']] [3 * 4 * 5 = 60 (no bold)]]
- [[[^'''3 *4* 5 = 60 (4 is bold)''']] [3 *4* 5 = 60 (4 is bold)]]
- [[[^'''*This is bold* this is not *but this is*''']][*This is bold* this is not *but this is*]]
- [[[^'''*This is bold*.''']] [*This is bold*.]]
- [[[^'''*B*. (bold B)''']] [*B*. (bold B)]]
- [[[^'''['*Bold-Italic*]''']] [['*Bold-Italic*]]]
- [[[^'''*side-by*/-side/''']] [*side-by*/-side/]]
-]
-
-As mentioned, simple markups cannot go past a single block. The text
-from "have" to "full" in the following paragraph will be rendered as
-bold:
-
-[pre'''
-Baa baa black sheep, *have you any wool?
-Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full!*
-One for the master, one for the dame,
-And one for the little boy who lives down the lane.
-''']
-
-Baa baa black sheep, *have you any wool?
-Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full!*
-One for the master, one for the dame,
-And one for the little boy who lives down the lane.
-
-But in the following paragraph, bold is not applied:
-
-[pre'''
-Baa baa black sheep, *have you any wool?
-Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full!
-One for the master, one for the dame,
-And one for the little boy who lives down the lane.
-''']
-
-Baa baa black sheep, *have you any wool?
-Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full!
-One for the master, one for the dame,
-And one for the little boy who lives down the lane.
-
-[endsect]
-[section Inline code]
-
-Inlining code in paragraphs is quite common when writing C++ documentation. We
-provide a very simple markup for this. For example, this:
-
-[pre'''
-This text has inlined code `int main() { return 0; }` in it.
-''']
-
-will generate:
-
-This text has inlined code `int main() { return 0; }` in it. The code will be
-syntax highlighted.
-
-[note We simply enclose the code with the tick: [^'''"`"'''], not the
-single quote: `"'"`. Note too that [^'''`some code`'''] is preferred over
-[^'''[^some code]''']. ]
-
-[endsect]
-[section Code blocks]
-
-Preformatted code simply starts with a space or a tab (See __code__).
-However, such a simple syntax cannot be used as phrase elements in lists
-(See __ordered_lists__ and __unordered_lists__), tables (See __tables__),
-etc. Inline code (see above) can. The problem is, inline code does not
-allow formatting with newlines, spaces, and tabs. These are lost.
-
-We provide a phrase level markup that is a mix between the two. By using the
-double-tick, instead of the single-tick, we are telling QuickBook to use
-preformatted blocks of code. Example:
-
-[pre
-\`\`
- #include <iostream>
-
- int main()
- {
- std::cout << "Hello, World!" << std::endl;
- return 0;
- }
-\`\`
-]
-
-will generate:
-
-``
- #include <iostream>
-
- int main()
- {
- std::cout << "Hello, World!" << std::endl;
- return 0;
- }
-``
-
-[endsect]
-[section Source Mode]
-
-If a document contains more than one type of source code then the source
-mode may be changed dynamically as the document is processed. All QuickBook
-documents are initially in C++ mode by default, though an alternative
-initial value may be set in the __document__ section.
-
-To change the source mode, use the [^\[source-mode\]] markup, where
-=source-mode= is one of the supported modes. For example, this:
-
-[pre'''
-Python's [python] `import` is rather like C++'s [c++] `#include`. A
-C++ comment `// looks like this` whereas a Python comment [python]
-`# looks like this`.
-''']
-
-will generate:
-
-Python's [python] `import` is rather like C++'s [c++] `#include`. A
-C++ comment `// looks like this` whereas a Python comment [python]
-`#looks like this`.
-
-[table Supported Source Modes
- [[Mode] [Source Mode Markup]]
- [[C++] [[^\[c++\]]]]
- [[Python] [[^\[python\]]]]
-]
-
-[note The source mode strings are lowercase.]
-
-[endsect]
-[section line-break]
-
-[pre'''
-[br]
-''']
-
-[warning `[br]` is now deprecated. __blurbs__, __admonitions__ and
-table cells (see __tables__) may now contain paragraphs.]
-
-[endsect]
-[section Anchors]
-
-[pre'''
-[#named_anchor]
-''']
-
-A named anchor is a hook that can be referenced by a link elsewhere in the
-document. You can then reference an anchor with [^'''[link named_anchor
-Some link text]''']. See __anchor_links__, __section__ and __heading__.
-
-[endsect]
-[section Links]
-
-[pre'''
-[@http://www.boost.org this is [*boost's] website....]
-''']
-
-will generate:
-
-[@http://www.boost.org this is [*boost's] website....]
-
-URL links where the link text is the link itself is common. Example:
-
-[pre'''
-see http://spirit.sourceforge.net/
-''']
-
-so, when the text is absent in a link markup, the URL is assumed. Example:
-
-[pre
-see '''[@http://spirit.sourceforge.net/]'''
-]
-
-will generate:
-
-see [@http://spirit.sourceforge.net/]
-
-[endsect]
-[section Anchor links]
-
-You can link within a document using:
-
-[pre'''
-[link section_id.normalized_header_text The link text]
-''']
-
-See sections __section__ and __heading__ for more info.
-
-[endsect]
-[section refentry links]
-
-In addition, you can link internally to an XML refentry like:
-
-[pre'''
-[link xml.refentry The link text]
-''']
-
-This gets converted into [^<link linkend="xml.refentry">The link text</link>].
-
-Like URLs, the link text is optional. If this is not present, the link text will
-automatically be the refentry. Example:
-
-[pre'''
-[link xml.refentry]
-''']
-
-This gets converted into [^<link linkend="xml.refentry">xml.refentry</link>].
-
-[endsect]
-[section:code_links Code Links]
-
-If you want to link to a function, class, member, enum, concept or header in the reference
-section, you can use:
-
-[pre'''
-[funcref fully::qualified::function_name The link text]
-[classref fully::qualified::class_name The link text]
-[memberref fully::qualified::member_name The link text]
-[enumref fully::qualified::enum_name The link text]
-[macroref MACRO_NAME The link text]
-[conceptref ConceptName The link text]
-[headerref path/to/header.hpp The link text]
-''']
-
-Again, the link text is optional. If this is not present, the link text will
-automatically be the function, class, member, enum, macro, concept or header. Example:
-
-[pre'''
-[classref boost::bar::baz]
-''']
-
-would have "boost::bar::baz" as the link text.
-
-[endsect]
-[section Escape]
-
-The escape mark-up is used when we don't want to do any processing.
-
-[pre
-\'\'\'
-escape (no processing/formatting)
-\'\'\'
-]
-
-Escaping allows us to pass XML markup to __boostbook__ or __docbook__. For example:
-
-[pre
-\'\'\'
-<emphasis role="bold">This is direct XML markup</emphasis>
-\'\'\'
-]
-
-'''
-<emphasis role="bold">This is direct XML markup</emphasis>
-'''
-
-[important Be careful when using the escape. The text must conform to
-__boostbook__/__docbook__ syntax.]
-
-[endsect]
-[section Single char escape]
-
-The backslash may be used to escape a single punctuation character. The
-punctuation immediately after the backslash is passed without any processing.
-This is useful when we need to escape QuickBook punctuations such as `[` and `]`.
-For example, how do you escape the triple quote? Simple: [^\\'\\'\\']
-
-
-`\n` has a special meaning. It is used to generate line breaks.
-
-[warning `\n` and `[br]` are now deprecated. __blurbs__, __admonitions__
-and table cells (see __tables__) may now contain paragraphs.]
-
-The escaped space: `\ ` also has a special meaning. The escaped space is removed
-from the output.
-
-[endsect]
-[section Images]
-
-[pre'''
-[$image.jpg]
-''']
-
-[endsect]
-[section Footnotes]
-
-As of version 1.3, QuickBook supports footnotes. Just put the text of the
-footnote in a `[footnote]` block, and the text will be put at the bottom
-of the current page. For example, this:
-
-[pre'''
-[footnote A sample footnote]
-''']
-
-will generate this[footnote A sample footnote].
-
-[section Macro Expansion]
-
-[pre'''
-__a_macro_identifier__
-''']
-
-See __macros__ for details.
-
-[endsect]
-
-[section Template Expansion]
-
-[pre'''
-[a_template_identifier]
-''']
-
-See __templates__ for details.
-
-[endsect]
-
-[endsect]
-[endsect]
-[section:block Block Level Elements]
-
-[section Document]
-
-Every document must begin with a Document Info section, which should look
-like this:
-
-[pre'''
-[document-type The Document Title
- [quickbook 1.3]
- [version 1.0]
- [id the_document_name]
- [dirname the_document_dir]
- [copyright 2000 2002 2003 Joe Blow, Jane Doe]
- [purpose The document's reason for being]
- [category The document's category]
- [authors [Blow, Joe], [Doe, Jane]]
- [license The document's license]
- [source-mode source-type]
-]
-''']
-
-Where document-type is one of:
-
-* book
-* article
-* library
-* chapter
-* part
-* appendix
-* preface
-* qandadiv
-* qandaset
-* reference
-* set
-
-quickbook 1.3 declares the version of quickbook the document is written for.
-In its absence, version 1.1 is assumed.
-
-=version=, =id=, =dirname=, =copyright=, =purpose=, =category=, =authors=,
-=license=, =last-revision= and =source-mode= are optional information.
-
-=source-type= is a lowercase string setting the initial __source_mode__. If
-the =source-mode= field is omitted, a default value of =c++= will be used.
-
-[endsect]
-[section Section]
-
-Starting a new section is accomplished with:
-
-[pre'''
-[section:id The Section Title]
-''']
-
-where /id/ is optional. id will be the filename of the generated section.
-If it is not present, "The Section Title" will be normalized and become the id.
-Valid characters are =a-Z=, =A-Z=, =0-9= and =_=. All non-valid characters are
-converted to underscore and all upper-case are converted to lower case.
-Thus: "The Section Title" will be normalized to "the_section_title".
-
-End a section with:
-
-[pre'''
-[endsect]
-''']
-
-Sections can nest, and that results in a hierarchy in the table of contents.
-
-[endsect]
-[section xinclude]
-
-You can include another XML file with:
-
-[pre'''
-[xinclude file.xml]
-''']
-
-This is useful when file.xml has been generated by Doxygen and contains your
-reference section.
-
-[endsect]
-[section Paragraphs]
-
-Paragraphs start left-flushed and are terminated by two or more newlines. No
-markup is needed for paragraphs. QuickBook automatically detects paragraphs from
-the context. Block markups \[section, endsect, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, blurb,
-(block-quote) ':', pre, def, table and include \] may also terminate a paragraph.
-
-[endsect]
-

-
-List hierarchies are supported. Example:

-# Four
- # Four.a

-[section Long List Lines]
-
-Long lines will be wrapped appropriately. Example:
-
-[pre
-# A short item.
-# A very long item. A very long item. A very long item.
- A very long item. A very long item. A very long item.
- A very long item. A very long item. A very long item.

-[section Code]
-
-Preformatted code starts with a space or a tab. The code will be
-syntax highlighted according to the current __source_mode__:
-
-[c++]
-
- #include <iostream>
-
- int main()
- {
- // Sample code
- std::cout << "Hello, World\n";
- return 0;

- def cookForHtml(text):
- '''"Cooks" the input text for HTML.'''
-
- return cgi.escape(text)
-

-
-Macros that are already defined are expanded in source code. Example:
-
-[pre'''
-[def __array__ [@http://www.boost.org/doc/html/array/reference.html array]]
-[def __boost__ [@http://www.boost.org/libs/libraries.htm boost]]
-

-[section:escape_back Escaping Back To QuickBook]
-
-Inside code, code blocks and inline code, QuickBook does not allow any
-markup to avoid conflicts with the target syntax (e.g. c++). In case you
-need to switch back to QuickBook markup inside code, you can do so using a
-language specific /escape-back/ delimiter. In C++ and Python, the delimiter
-is the double tick (back-quote): "\`\`" and "\`\`". Example:
-
-[pre'''
-void ``[@http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foo#Foo.2C_Bar_and_Baz foo]``()
-{
-}
-''']
-
-Will generate:
-
- void ``[@http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foo#Foo.2C_Bar_and_Baz foo]``()
- {
- }
-
-When escaping from code to QuickBook, only phrase level markups are
-allowed. Block level markups like lists, tables etc. are not allowed.
-
-[endsect]
-[section Preformatted]
-
-Sometimes, you don't want some preformatted text to be parsed as C++. In such
-cases, use the [^[pre ... \]] markup block.
-
-[pre'''
-[pre
-
- Some *preformatted* text Some *preformatted* text
-
- Some *preformatted* text Some *preformatted* text
-
- Some *preformatted* text Some *preformatted* text
-
-]
-''']
-
-Spaces, tabs and newlines are rendered as-is. Unlike all quickbook block level
-markup, pre (and Code) are the only ones that allow multiple newlines. The
-markup above will generate:
-
-[pre
-
-Some *preformatted* text Some *preformatted* text
-
- Some *preformatted* text Some *preformatted* text
-
- Some *preformatted* text Some *preformatted* text
-

-
-Notice that unlike Code, phrase markup such as font style is still permitted
-inside =pre= blocks.

-[h6 Heading 6]

-
-[h1 Heading 1]
-[h2 Heading 2]
-[h3 Heading 3]
-[h4 Heading 4]
-[h5 Heading 5]
-[h6 Heading 6]
-
-Headings 1-3 \[h1 h2 and h3\] will automatically have anchors with normalized
-names with [^name="section_id.normalized_header_text"] (i.e. valid characters are
-=a-z=, =A-Z=, =0-9= and =_=. All non-valid characters are converted to underscore
-and all upper-case are converted to lower-case. For example: Heading
-1 in section Section 2 will be normalized to [^section_2.heading_1]). You can use:
-
-[pre'''
-[link section_id.normalized_header_text The link text]
-''']
-
-to link to them. See __anchor_links__ and __section__ for more info.
-
-[endsect]
-[section Generic Heading]
-
-In cases when you don't want to care about the heading level (1 to 6), you
-can use the /Generic Heading/:
-
-[pre'''
-[heading Heading]
-''']
-
-The /Generic Heading/ assumes the level, plus one, of the innermost section
-where it is placed. For example, if it is placed in the outermost section,
-then, it assumes /h2/.
-
-Headings are often used as an alternative to sections. It is used
-particularly if you do not want to start a new section. In many cases,
-however, headings in a particular section is just flat. Example:
-
-[pre'''
-[section A]
-[h2 X]
-[h2 Y]
-[h2 Z]
-[endsect]
-''']
-
-Here we use h2 assuming that section A is the outermost level. If it is
-placed in an inner level, you'll have to use h3, h4, etc. depending on
-where the section is. In general, it is the section level plus one. It is
-rather tedious, however, to scan the section level everytime. If you
-rewrite the example above as shown below, this will be automatic:
-
-[pre'''
-[section A]
-[heading X]
-[heading Y]
-[heading Z]
-[endsect]
-''']
-
-They work well regardless where you place them. You can rearrange sections
-at will without any extra work to ensure correct heading levels. In fact,
-with /section/ and /heading/, you have all you need. /h1/../h6/ becomes
-redundant. /h1/../h6/ might be deprecated in the future.
-
-[endsect]
-[section Macros]
-
-[pre'''
-[def macro_identifier some text]
-''']
-
-When a macro is defined, the identifier replaces the text anywhere in the
-file, in paragraphs, in markups, etc. macro_identifier is a string of non-
-white space characters except '\]'. A macro may not follow an alphabetic
-character or the underscore. The replacement text can be any phrase (even
-marked up). Example:
-
-[pre'''
-[def sf_logo [$http://sourceforge.net/sflogo.php?group_id=28447&type=1]]
-sf_logo
-''']
-
-Now everywhere the sf_logo is placed, the picture will be inlined.
-
-[def sf_logo [$http://sourceforge.net/sflogo.php?group_id=28447&type=1]]
-sf_logo
-
-[tip It's a good idea to use macro identifiers that are distinguishable.
-For instance, in this document, macro identifiers have two leading and
-trailing underscores (e.g. [^'''__spirit__''']). The reason is to avoid
-unwanted macro replacement.]
-
-Links (URLS) and images are good candidates for macros. *1*) They tend to
-change a lot. It is a good idea to place all links and images in one place near the top
-to make it easy to make changes. *2*) The syntax is not pretty. It's easier to read and
-write, e.g. [^'''__spirit__'''] than [^'''[@http://spirit.sourceforge.net Spirit]'''].
-
-Some more examples:
-
-[pre'''
-[def :-) [$theme/smiley.png]]
-[def __spirit__ [@http://spirit.sourceforge.net Spirit]]
-''']
-
-(See __images__ and __links__)
-
-Invoking these macros:
-
-[pre'''
-Hi __spirit__ :-)
-''']
-
-will generate this:
-
-Hi __spirit__ :-)
-
-[endsect]
-[section Predefined Macros]
-
-Quickbook has some predefined macros that you can already use.
-
-[table Predefined Macros
- [[Macro] [Meaning] [Example]]
- [['''__DATE__'''] [Today's date] [__DATE__]]
- [['''__TIME__'''] [The current time] [__TIME__]]
- [['''__FILENAME__'''] [Quickbook source filename] [__FILENAME__]]
-]
-
-[endsect]
-[section Templates]
-
-Templates provide a more versatile text substitution mechanism. Templates
-come in handy when you need to create parameterizable, multi-line,
-boilerplate text that you specify once and expand many times. Templates
-accept one or more arguments. These arguments act like place-holders for
-text replacement. Unlike simple macros, which are limited to phrase level
-markup, templates can contain block level markup (e.g. paragraphs, code
-blocks and tables).
-
-Example template:
-
-[pre'''
-[template person[name age what]
-
-Hi, my name is [name]. I am [age] years old. I am a [what].
-
-]
-''']
-
-[template person[name age what]
-
-Hi, my name is [name]. I am [age] years old. I am a [what].
-
-]
-
-[heading Template Identifier]
-
-Template identifiers can either consist of:
-
-* An initial alphabetic character or the underscore, followed by
- zero or more alphanumeric characters or the underscore. This is
- similar to your typical C/C++ identifier.
-* A single character punctuation (a non-alphanumeric printable character)
-
-[heading Formal Template Arguments]
-
-Template formal arguments are identifiers consisting of an initial
-alphabetic character or the underscore, followed by zero or more
-alphanumeric characters or the underscore. This is similar to your typical
-C/C++ identifier.
-
-A template formal argument temporarily hides a template of the same name at
-the point where the [link quickbook.syntax.block.templates.template_expansion
-template is expanded]. Note that the body of the [^person] template above
-refers to [^name] [^age] and [^what] as [^\[name\]] [^\[age\]] and
-[^\[what\]]. [^name] [^age] and [^what] are actually templates that exist
-in the duration of the template call.
-
-[heading Template Body]
-
-The template body can be just about any QuickBook block or phrase. There
-are actually two forms. Templates may be phrase or block level. Phrase
-templates are of the form:
-
-[pre'''
-[template sample[arg1 arg2...argN] replacement text... ]
-''']
-
-Block templates are of the form:
-
-[pre'''
-[template sample[arg1 arg2...argN]
-replacement text...
-]
-''']
-
-The basic rule is as follows: if a newline immediately follows the argument
-list, then it is a block template, otherwise, it is a phrase template.
-Phrase templates are typically expanded as part of phrases. Like macros,
-block level elements are not allowed in phrase templates.
-
-[heading Template Expansion]
-
-You expand a template this way:
-
-[pre'''
-[template_identifier arg1..arg2..arg3]
-''']
-
-At template expansion, you supply the actual arguments. The template will
-be expanded with your supplied arguments. Example:
-
-[pre'''
-[person James Bond..39..Spy]
-[person Santa Clause..87..Big Red Fatso]
-''']
-
-Which will expand to:
-
-[person James Bond..39..Spy]
-[person Santa Clause..87..Big Red Fatso]
-
-[caution A word of caution: Templates are recursive. A template can call
-another template or even itself, directly or indirectly. There are no
-control structures in QuickBook (yet) so this will always mean infinite
-recursion. QuickBook can detect this situation and report an error if
-recursion exceeds a certain limit.]
-
-Each actual argument can be a word, a text fragment or just about any [link
-quickbook.syntax.phrase QuickBook phrase]. Arguments are separated by the
-double dot [^".."] and terminated by the close parenthesis.
-
-[heading Nullary Templates]
-
-Nullary templates look and act like simple macros. Example:
-
-[pre'''
-[template alpha[]'''&#945;''']
-[template beta[]'''&#946;''']
-''']
-
-[template alpha[]'''α''']
-[template beta[]'''β''']
-
-Expanding:
-
-[pre'''Some squigles...[*[alpha][beta]]''']
-
-We have:
-
-Some squiggles...[*[alpha][beta]]
-
-The difference with macros are
-
-* The explicit [link quickbook.syntax.block.templates.template_expansion
- template expansion syntax]. This is an advantage because, now, we don't
- have to use obscure naming conventions like double underscores (e.g.
- \_\_alpha\_\_) to avoid unwanted
- macro replacement.
-* The template is expanded at the point where it is invoked. A macro is
- expanded immediately at its point of declaration. This is subtle and
- can cause a slight difference in behavior especially if you refer to
- other macros and templates in the body.
-
-The empty brackets after the template identifier ([^alpha\[\]]) indicates no
-arguments. If the template body does not look like a template argument list, we
-can elide the empty brackets. Example:
-
-[pre'''
-[template aristotle_quote Aristotle: [*['Education is the best provision
-for the journey to old age.]]]
-''']
-
-[template aristotle_quote\ Aristotle: [*['Education is the best provision
-for the journey to old age.]]]
-
-Expanding:
-
-[pre'''
-Here's a quote from [aristotle_quote].
-''']
-
-We have:
-
-Here's a quote from [aristotle_quote].
-
-The disadvantage is that you can't avoid the space between the template
-identifier, `aristotle_quote`, and the template body "Aristotle...". This space
-will be part of the template body. If that space is unwanted, use empty
-brackets or use the space escape: "`\ `". Example:
-
-[pre'''
-[template tag\ _tag]
-''']
-
-[template tag\ _tag]
-
-Then expanding:
-
-[pre'''
-`struct` x[tag];
-''']
-
-We have:
-
-`struct` x[tag];
-
-You have a couple of ways to do it. I personally prefer the explicit empty
-brackets, though.
-
-[heading Simple Arguments]
-
-As mentioned, arguments are separated by the double dot [^".."]. If there
-are less arguments passed than expected, QuickBook attempts to break the
-last argument into two or more arguments following this logic:
-
-* Break the last argument into two, at the first space found ([^'', '\\n',
- \\t' or '\\r']).
-* Repeat until there are enough arguments or if there are no more spaces
- found (in which case, an error is reported).
-
-For example:
-
-[pre'''
-[template simple[a b c d] [a][b][c][d]]
-[simple w x y z]
-''']
-
-will produce:
-
-[template simple[a b c d] [a][b][c][d]]
-[simple w x y z]
-
-"w x y z" is initially treated as a single argument because we didn't
-supply any [^".."] separators. However, since [^simple] expects 4
-arguments, "w x y z" is broken down iteratively (applying the logic above)
-until we have "w", "x", "y" and "z".
-
-QuickBook only tries to get the arguments it needs. For example:
-
-[pre'''
-[simple w x y z trail]
-''']
-
-will produce:
-
-[simple w x y z trail]
-
-The arguments being: "w", "x", "y" and "z trail".
-
-It should be obvious now that for simple arguments with no spaces, we can
-get by without separating the arguments with [^".."] separators. It is
-possible to combine [^".."] separators with the argument passing
-simplification presented above. Example:
-
-[pre'''
-[simple what do you think ..m a n?]
-''']
-
-will produce:
-
-[simple what do you think ..m a n?]
-
-[heading Punctuation Templates]
-
-With templates, one of our objectives is to allow us to rewrite QuickBook
-in QuickBook (as a qbk library). For that to happen, we need to accommodate
-single character punctuation templates which are fairly common in
-QuickBook. You might have noticed that single character punctuations are
-allowed as [link quickbook.syntax.block.templates.template_identifier
-template identifiers]. Example:
-
-[pre'''
-[template ![bar] '''<hey>'''[bar]'''</hey>''']
-''']
-
-Now, expanding this:
-
-[pre'''
-[!baz]
-''']
-
-We will have:
-
-[pre
-<hey>baz</hey>

-]
-
-The table title is optional. The first row of the table is automatically
-treated as the table header; that is, it is wrapped in
-[^<thead>...</thead>] XML tags. Note that unlike the original QuickDoc, the
-columns are nested in [ cells... ]. The syntax is free-format and allows
-big cells to be formatted nicely. Example:
-
-[pre'''

- return 0;
- }
- ``]
- ]
-]
-
-[endsect]
-[section Variable Lists]
-
-[pre'''
-[variablelist A Variable List
- [[term 1] [The definition of term 1]]
- [[term 2] [The definition of term 2]]
- [[term 3] [The definition of term 3]]
-]
-''']
-
-will generate:
-
-[variablelist A Variable List
- [[term 1] [The definition of term 1]]
- [[term 2] [The definition of term 2]]
- [[term 3] [The definition of term 3]]
-]
-
-The rules for variable lists are the same as for tables, except that
-only 2 "columns" are allowed. The first column contains the terms, and
-the second column contains the definitions. Those familiar with HTML
-will recognize this as a "definition list".
-
-[endsect]
-[section Include]
-
-You can include one QuickBook file from another. The syntax is simply:
-
-[pre'''
-[include someother.qbk]
-''']
-
-The included file will be processed as if it had been cut and pasted
-into the current document, with the following exceptions:
-
-* The '''__FILENAME__''' predefined macro will reflect the name of the
- file currently being processed.
-* Any macros defined in the included file are scoped to that file.
-
-The [^\[include\]] directive lets you specify a document id to use for the
-included file. When this id is not explicitly specified, the id defaults to
-the filename ("someother", in the example above). You can specify the id
-like this:
-
-[pre'''
-[include:someid someother.qbk]
-''']
-
-All auto-generated anchors will use the document id as a unique prefix. So
-for instance, if there is a top section in someother.qbk named "Intro", the
-named anchor for that section will be "someid.intro", and you can link to
-it with [^\[link someid.intro The Intro\]].
-
-[endsect]
-
-[section Import]
-
-When documenting code, you'd surely need to present code from actual source
-files. While it is possible to copy some code and paste them in your QuickBook
-file, doing so is error prone and the extracted code in the documentation tends
-to get out of sync with the actual code as the code evolves. The problem, as
-always, is that once documentation is written, the tendency is for the docs to
-languish in the archives without maintenance.
-
-QuickBook's import facility provides a nice solution.
-
-[heading Example]
-
-You can effortlessly import code snippets from source code into your QuickBook.
-The following illustrates how this is done:
-
-[pre'''
-[import ../test/stub.cpp]
-[foo]
-[bar]
-''']
-
-The first line:
-
-[pre'''
-[import ../test/stub.cpp]
-''']
-
-collects specially marked-up code snippets from [@../../test/stub.cpp stub.cpp]
-and places them in your QuickBook file as virtual templates. Each of the
-specially marked-up code snippets has a name (e.g. `foo` and `bar` in the
-example above). This shall be the template identifier for that particular code
-snippet. The second and third line above does the actual template expansion:
-
-[pre'''
-[foo]
-[bar]
-''']
-
-And the result is:
-
-[import ../test/stub.cpp]
-[foo]
-[bar]
-
-[heading Code Snippet Markup]
-
-Note how the code snippets in [@../../test/stub.cpp stub.cpp] get marked up. We
-use distinguishable comments following the form:
-
- //[id
- some code here
- //]
-
-The first comment line above initiates a named code-snippet. This prefix will
-not be visible in quickbook. The entire code-snippet in between `//[id` and
-`//]` will be inserted as a template in quickbook with name ['/id/]. The comment
-`//]` ends a code-snippet This too will not be visible in quickbook.
-
-[heading Special Comments]
-
-Special comments of the form:
-
- //` some [*quickbook] markup here
-
-and:
-
- /*` some [*quickbook] markup here */
-
-will be parsed by QuickBook. This can contain quickbook /blocks/ (e.g. sections,
-paragraphs, tables, etc). In the first case, the initial slash-slash, tick and
-white-space shall be ignored. In the second, the initial slash-star-tick and the
-final star-slash shall be ignored.
-
-[heading Callouts]
-
-Special comments of the form:
-
- /*< some [*quickbook] markup here >*/
-
-will be regarded as callouts. These will be collected, numbered and
-rendered as a "callout bug" (a small icon with a number). After the
-whole snippet is parsed, the callout list is generated. See
-[@http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/callout.html Callouts] for details.
-Example:
-
-[foo_bar]
-
-Checkout [@../../test/stub.cpp stub.cpp] to see the actual code.

- instructions use `C:\Users\example\Documents\boost\xml` as the root for
- all files.
-
-# From the command line, go to the `bin` directory and launch
- `xsltproc.exe` to ensure it works. You should get usage information on
- screen.
-
-# Download [@http://www.docbook.org/xml/4.2/docbook-xml-4.2.zip Docbook XML
- 4.2] and unpack it in the same directory used above. That is:
- `C:\Users\example\Documents\boost\xml\docbook-xml`.
-
-# Download the latest
- [@http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=21935&package_id=16608
- Docbook XSL] version and unpack it, again in the same directory
- used before. To make things easier, rename the directory created
- during the extraction to `docbook-xsl` (bypassing the version name):
- `C:\Users\example\Documents\boost\xml\docbook-xsl`.
-
-# Add the following to your `user-config.jam` file, which should live in

-[section:linux Debian, Ubuntu]
-
-The following instructions apply to Debian and its derivatives. They are based
-on a Ubuntu Edgy install but should work on other Debian based systems.
-
-First install the `bjam`, `xsltproc`, `docbook-xsl` and `docbook-xml` packages.
-For example, using `apt-get`:
-
- sudo apt-get install xsltprc docbook-xsl docbook-xml
-
-If you're planning on building boost's documentation, you'll also need to
-install the `doxygen` package as well.
-
-Next, we need to configure Boost Build to compile BoostBook files. Add the
-following to your `user-config.jam` file, which should be in your home
-directory. If you don't have one, create a file containing this text. For more
-information on setting up `user-config.jam`, see the
-[@http://boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/advanced/configuration.html Boost

-
-[heading Can I use QuickBook for non-Boost documentation?]
-
-QuickBook can be used for non-Boost documentation with a little extra work.
-
-[:['Faq contributed by Michael Marcin]]
-
-When building HTML documentation with BoostBook a Boost C++ Libraries header
-is added to the files. When using QuickBook to document projects outside of
-Boost this is not desirable. This behavior can be overridden at the BoostBook
-level by specifying some XSLT options. When using Boost Build version 2 (BBv2)
-this can be achieved by adding parameters to the BoostBook target declaration.
-
-For example:
-[pre
-using quickbook ;
-
-xml my_doc : my_doc.qbk ;
-
-boostbook standalone
- :
- my_doc
- :
- <xsl:param>boost.image.src=images/my_project_logo.png
- <xsl:param>boost.image.alt="\\"My Project\\""

+[section:intro Introduction]
+
+[:[*['["Why program by hand in five days what you can spend five years of your
+life automating?]]]
+
+-- Terrence Parr, author ANTLR/PCCTS
+]
+
+Well, QuickBook started as a weekend hack. It was originally intended to be a
+sample application using __spirit__. What is it? What you are viewing now, this
+documentation, is autogenerated by QuickBook. These files were generated from
+one master:
+
+[:[@../quickbook.qbk quickbook.qbk]]
+
+Originally named QuickDoc, this funky tool that never dies evolved into a
+funkier tool thanks to Eric Niebler who resurrected the project making it
+generate __boostbook__ instead of HTML. The __boostbook__ documentation format
+is an extension of __docbook__, an SGML or XML based format for describing
+documentation.
+
+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.
+
+Features include:
+
+* generate __boostbook__ xml, to generate HTML, PostScript and PDF
+* simple markup to link to Doxygen-generated entities
+* macro system for simple text substitution
+* simple markup for italics, bold, preformatted, blurbs, code samples,
+ tables, URLs, anchors, images, etc.
+* automatic syntax coloring of code samples
+* CSS support
+
+[endsect]
+
+[section:change_log Change Log]
+
+[h3 Version 1.3]
+
+* Quickbook file inclusion \[include\].
+* Better xml output (pretty layout). Check out the generated XML.
+* Regression testing facility: to make sure your document will always be
+ compatible (full backward compatibility) regardless of changes to
+ QuickBook.
+* Code cleanup and refactoring.
+* Allow phrase markup in the doc-info.
+* Preformatted code blocks via \`\`code\`\` (double ticks) allows code in tables
+ and lists, for example.
+* Quickbook versioning; allows full backward compatibility. You have to add
+ \[quickbook 1.3\] to the doc-info header to enable the new features. Without
+ this, QuickBook will assume that the document is a pre-1.3 document.
+* Better (intuitive) paragraph termination. Some markups may terminate a paragraph.
+ Example:``
+ [section x]
+ blah...
+ [endsect]``
+* Fully qualified section and headers. Subsection names are concatenated to the
+ ID to avoid clashing. Example: `doc_name.sect_name.sub_sect_name.sub_sub_sect_name`
+* Better   and whitespace handling in code snippets.
+* \[xinclude\] fixes up the relative path to the target XML file when
+ input_directory is not the same as the output_directory.
+* Allow untitled tables.
+* Allow phrase markups in section titles.
+* Allow escaping back to QuickBook from code, code blocks and inline code.
+* Footnotes, with the \[footnote This is the footnote\] syntax.
+* Post-processor bug fix for escaped XML code that it does not recognize.
+* Replaceable, with the \[~replacement\] syntax.
+* Generic Headers
+* Code changes to allow full recursion (i.e. Collectors and push/pop functions)
+* Various code cleanup/maintenance
+* Templates!
+* \[conceptref\] for referencing BoostBook <concept> entities.
+* Allow escape of spaces. The escaped space is removed from the output. Syntax:
+ `\ `.
+* Nested comments are now allowed.
+* Quickbook blocks can nest inside comments.
+* __import__ facility.
+* Callouts on imported code
+* Simple markups can now span a whole block.
+* __blurbs__, __admonitions__ and table cells (see __tables__) may now
+ contain paragraphs.
+* `\n` and `[br]` are now deprecated.
+
+[endsect]
+
+[section:syntax Syntax Summary]
+
+A QuickBook document is composed of one or more blocks. An example of
+a block is the paragraph or a C++ code snippet. Some blocks have
+special mark-ups. Blocks, except code snippets which have their own
+grammar (C++ or Python), are composed of one or more phrases. A phrase
+can be a simple contiguous run of characters. Phrases can have special
+mark-ups. Marked up phrases can recursively contain other phrases, but
+cannot contain blocks. A terminal is a self contained block-level or
+phrase-level element that does not nest anything.
+
+Blocks, in general, are delimited by two end-of-lines (the block terminator).
+Phrases in each block cannot contain a block terminator. This way, syntax errors
+such as un-matched closing brackets do not go haywire and corrupt anything past
+a single block.
+
+[section Comments]
+
+Can be placed anywhere.
+
+[pre
+'''[/ comment (no output generated) ]'''
+]
+
+[/ for testing only... ]
+
+[pre
+'''[/ comments can be nested [/ some more here] ]'''
+]
+
+[/ for testing [/ only ] ]
+
+[pre
+'''[/ Quickbook blocks can nest inside comments. [*Comment this out too!] ]'''
+]
+
+[/ for testing [*only ] ]
+
+[endsect]
+
+[section:phrase Phrase Level Elements]
+
+[section Font Styles]
+
+[pre'''
+['italic], [*bold], [_underline], [^teletype], [-strikethrough]
+''']
+
+will generate:
+
+['italic], [*bold], [_underline], [^teletype], [-strikethrough]
+
+Like all non-terminal phrase level elements, this can of course be nested:
+
+[pre'''
+[*['bold-italic]]
+''']
+
+will generate:
+
+[*['bold-italic]]
+
+[endsect]
+
+[section Replaceable]
+
+When you want content that may or must be replaced by the user, use the syntax:
+
+[pre'''
+[~replacement]
+''']
+
+This will generate:
+
+[~replacement]
+
+[endsect]
+
+[section Quotations]
+
+[pre'''
+["A question that sometimes drives me hazy: am I or are the others crazy?]--Einstein
+''']
+
+will generate:
+
+["A question that sometimes drives me hazy: am I or are the others crazy?]--Einstein
+
+Note the proper left and right quote marks. Also, while you can simply use
+ordinary quote marks like "quoted", our quotation, above, will generate correct
+DocBook quotations (e.g. <quote>quoted</quote>).
+
+Like all phrase elements, quotations may be nested. Example:
+
+[pre'''
+["Here's the rule for bargains: ["Do other men, for they would do you.] That's
+the true business precept.]
+''']
+
+will generate:
+
+["Here's the rule for bargains: ["Do other men, for they would do you.]
+That's the true business precept.]
+
+[endsect]
+[section Simple formatting]
+
+Simple markup for formatting text, common in many applications, is now supported:
+
+[pre'''
+/italic/, *bold*, _underline_, =teletype=
+''']
+
+will generate:
+
+/italic/, *bold*, _underline_, =teletype=
+
+Unlike QuickBook's standard formatting scheme, the rules for simpler
+alternatives are much stricter[footnote Thanks to David Barrett, author of
+[@http://quinthar.com/qwikiwiki/index.php?page=Home Qwiki], for sharing
+these samples and teaching me these obscure formatting rules. I wasn't sure
+at all if __spirit__, being more or less a formal EBNF parser, can handle
+the context sensitivity and ambiguity.].
+
+* Simple markups cannot nest. You can combine a simple markup with a nestable markup.
+* Simple markups cannot contain any other form of quickbook markup.
+* A non-space character must follow the leading markup
+* A non-space character must precede the trailing markup
+* A space or a punctuation must follow the trailing markup
+* If the matching markup cannot be found within a block, the formatting
+ will not be applied. This is to ensure that un-matched formatting markups,
+ which can be a common mistake, does not corrupt anything past a single block.
+ We do not want the rest of the document to be rendered bold just because we
+ forgot a trailing '*'. A single block is terminated by two end of lines or
+ the close bracket: ']'.
+* A line starting with the star will be interpreted as an unordered list.
+ See __unordered_lists__.
+
+[table More Formatting Samples
+ [[Markup] [Result]]
+ [[[^'''*Bold*''']] [*Bold*]]
+ [[[^'''*Is bold*''']] [*Is bold*]]
+ [[[^'''* Not bold* *Not bold * * Not bold *''']] [* Not bold* *Not bold * * Not bold *]]
+ [[[^'''This*Isn't*Bold (no bold)''']] [This*Isn't*Bold (no bold)]]
+ [[[^'''(*Bold Inside*) (parenthesis not bold)''']] [(*Bold Inside*) (parenthesis not bold)]]
+ [[[^'''*(Bold Outside)* (parenthesis bold)''']] [*(Bold Outside)* (parenthesis bold)]]
+ [[[^'''3*4*5 = 60 (no bold)''']] [3*4*5 = 60 (no bold)]]
+ [[[^'''3 * 4 * 5 = 60 (no bold)''']] [3 * 4 * 5 = 60 (no bold)]]
+ [[[^'''3 *4* 5 = 60 (4 is bold)''']] [3 *4* 5 = 60 (4 is bold)]]
+ [[[^'''*This is bold* this is not *but this is*''']][*This is bold* this is not *but this is*]]
+ [[[^'''*This is bold*.''']] [*This is bold*.]]
+ [[[^'''*B*. (bold B)''']] [*B*. (bold B)]]
+ [[[^'''['*Bold-Italic*]''']] [['*Bold-Italic*]]]
+ [[[^'''*side-by*/-side/''']] [*side-by*/-side/]]
+]
+
+As mentioned, simple markups cannot go past a single block. The text
+from "have" to "full" in the following paragraph will be rendered as
+bold:
+
+[pre'''
+Baa baa black sheep, *have you any wool?
+Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full!*
+One for the master, one for the dame,
+And one for the little boy who lives down the lane.
+''']
+
+Baa baa black sheep, *have you any wool?
+Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full!*
+One for the master, one for the dame,
+And one for the little boy who lives down the lane.
+
+But in the following paragraph, bold is not applied:
+
+[pre'''
+Baa baa black sheep, *have you any wool?
+Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full!
+One for the master, one for the dame,
+And one for the little boy who lives down the lane.
+''']
+
+Baa baa black sheep, *have you any wool?
+Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full!
+One for the master, one for the dame,
+And one for the little boy who lives down the lane.
+
+[endsect]
+[section Inline code]
+
+Inlining code in paragraphs is quite common when writing C++ documentation. We
+provide a very simple markup for this. For example, this:
+
+[pre'''

+This text has inlined code `int main() { return 0; }` in it. The code will be
+syntax highlighted.
+
+[note We simply enclose the code with the tick: [^'''"`"'''], not the
+single quote: `"'"`. Note too that [^'''`some code`'''] is preferred over
+[^'''[^some code]''']. ]
+
+[endsect]
+[section Code blocks]
+
+Preformatted code simply starts with a space or a tab (See __code__).
+However, such a simple syntax cannot be used as phrase elements in lists
+(See __ordered_lists__ and __unordered_lists__), tables (See __tables__),
+etc. Inline code (see above) can. The problem is, inline code does not
+allow formatting with newlines, spaces, and tabs. These are lost.
+
+We provide a phrase level markup that is a mix between the two. By using the
+double-tick, instead of the single-tick, we are telling QuickBook to use
+preformatted blocks of code. Example:
+
+[pre
+\`\`
+ #include <iostream>
+
+ int main()
+ {
+ std::cout << "Hello, World!" << std::endl;
+ return 0;
+ }
+\`\`
+]
+
+will generate:

+ std::cout << "Hello, World!" << std::endl;
+ return 0;
+ }
+``
+
+[endsect]
+[section Source Mode]
+
+If a document contains more than one type of source code then the source
+mode may be changed dynamically as the document is processed. All QuickBook
+documents are initially in C++ mode by default, though an alternative
+initial value may be set in the __document__ section.
+
+To change the source mode, use the [^\[source-mode\]] markup, where
+=source-mode= is one of the supported modes. For example, this:
+
+[pre'''
+Python's [python] `import` is rather like C++'s [c++] `#include`. A
+C++ comment `// looks like this` whereas a Python comment [python]
+`# looks like this`.

+[section Anchors]
+
+[pre'''
+[#named_anchor]
+''']
+
+A named anchor is a hook that can be referenced by a link elsewhere in the
+document. You can then reference an anchor with [^'''[link named_anchor
+Some link text]''']. See __anchor_links__, __section__ and __heading__.
+
+[endsect]
+[section Links]
+
+[pre'''

+will generate:
+

+
+URL links where the link text is the link itself is common. Example:
+
+[pre'''
+see http://spirit.sourceforge.net/
+''']
+
+so, when the text is absent in a link markup, the URL is assumed. Example:
+
+[pre
+see '''[@http://spirit.sourceforge.net/]'''
+]
+
+will generate:
+
+see [@http://spirit.sourceforge.net/]
+
+[endsect]
+[section Anchor links]
+
+You can link within a document using:
+
+[pre'''
+[link section_id.normalized_header_text The link text]
+''']
+
+See sections __section__ and __heading__ for more info.
+
+[endsect]
+[section refentry links]
+
+In addition, you can link internally to an XML refentry like:
+
+[pre'''
+[link xml.refentry The link text]
+''']
+
+This gets converted into [^<link linkend="xml.refentry">The link text</link>].
+
+Like URLs, the link text is optional. If this is not present, the link text will
+automatically be the refentry. Example:
+
+[pre'''
+[link xml.refentry]
+''']
+
+This gets converted into [^<link linkend="xml.refentry">xml.refentry</link>].
+
+[endsect]
+[section:code_links Code Links]
+
+If you want to link to a function, class, member, enum, concept or header in the reference
+section, you can use:
+
+[pre'''
+[funcref fully::qualified::function_name The link text]
+[classref fully::qualified::class_name The link text]
+[memberref fully::qualified::member_name The link text]
+[enumref fully::qualified::enum_name The link text]
+[macroref MACRO_NAME The link text]
+[conceptref ConceptName The link text]
+[headerref path/to/header.hpp The link text]
+''']
+
+Again, the link text is optional. If this is not present, the link text will
+automatically be the function, class, member, enum, macro, concept or header. Example:
+
+[pre'''
+[classref boost::bar::baz]
+''']
+
+would have "boost::bar::baz" as the link text.
+
+[endsect]
+[section Escape]
+
+The escape mark-up is used when we don't want to do any processing.
+
+[pre
+\'\'\'
+escape (no processing/formatting)
+\'\'\'
+]
+
+Escaping allows us to pass XML markup to __boostbook__ or __docbook__. For example:
+
+[pre
+\'\'\'
+<emphasis role="bold">This is direct XML markup</emphasis>
+\'\'\'
+]
+
+'''
+<emphasis role="bold">This is direct XML markup</emphasis>
+'''
+
+[important Be careful when using the escape. The text must conform to
+__boostbook__/__docbook__ syntax.]
+
+[endsect]
+[section Single char escape]
+
+The backslash may be used to escape a single punctuation character. The
+punctuation immediately after the backslash is passed without any processing.
+This is useful when we need to escape QuickBook punctuations such as `[` and `]`.
+For example, how do you escape the triple quote? Simple: [^\\'\\'\\']
+
+
+`\n` has a special meaning. It is used to generate line breaks.
+
+[warning `\n` and `[br]` are now deprecated. __blurbs__, __admonitions__
+and table cells (see __tables__) may now contain paragraphs.]
+
+The escaped space: `\ ` also has a special meaning. The escaped space is removed
+from the output.

+
+[endsect]
+[section Footnotes]
+
+As of version 1.3, QuickBook supports footnotes. Just put the text of the
+footnote in a `[footnote]` block, and the text will be put at the bottom
+of the current page. For example, this:
+
+[pre'''
+[footnote A sample footnote]
+''']
+
+will generate this[footnote A sample footnote].

+
+Where document-type is one of:

+* chapter
+* part
+* appendix
+* preface
+* qandadiv
+* qandaset
+* reference
+* set
+
+quickbook 1.3 declares the version of quickbook the document is written for.
+In its absence, version 1.1 is assumed.
+
+=version=, =id=, =dirname=, =copyright=, =purpose=, =category=, =authors=,
+=license=, =last-revision= and =source-mode= are optional information.
+
+=source-type= is a lowercase string setting the initial __source_mode__. If
+the =source-mode= field is omitted, a default value of =c++= will be used.
+
+[endsect]
+[section Section]
+
+Starting a new section is accomplished with:
+
+[pre'''
+[section:id The Section Title]
+''']
+
+where /id/ is optional. id will be the filename of the generated section.
+If it is not present, "The Section Title" will be normalized and become the id.
+Valid characters are =a-Z=, =A-Z=, =0-9= and =_=. All non-valid characters are
+converted to underscore and all upper-case are converted to lower case.
+Thus: "The Section Title" will be normalized to "the_section_title".
+
+End a section with:
+
+[pre'''
+[endsect]
+''']
+
+Sections can nest, and that results in a hierarchy in the table of contents.
+
+[endsect]
+[section xinclude]
+
+You can include another XML file with:
+
+[pre'''
+[xinclude file.xml]
+''']
+
+This is useful when file.xml has been generated by Doxygen and contains your
+reference section.
+
+[endsect]
+[section Paragraphs]
+
+Paragraphs start left-flushed and are terminated by two or more newlines. No
+markup is needed for paragraphs. QuickBook automatically detects paragraphs from
+the context. Block markups \[section, endsect, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, blurb,
+(block-quote) ':', pre, def, table and include \] may also terminate a paragraph.

+[section Code]
+
+Preformatted code starts with a space or a tab. The code will be
+syntax highlighted according to the current __source_mode__:

+[def __boost__ [@http://www.boost.org/libs/libraries.htm boost]]

+
+ using __boost__::__array__;
+
+[endsect]
+[section:escape_back Escaping Back To QuickBook]
+
+Inside code, code blocks and inline code, QuickBook does not allow any
+markup to avoid conflicts with the target syntax (e.g. c++). In case you
+need to switch back to QuickBook markup inside code, you can do so using a
+language specific /escape-back/ delimiter. In C++ and Python, the delimiter
+is the double tick (back-quote): "\`\`" and "\`\`". Example:
+
+[pre'''
+void ``[@http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foo#Foo.2C_Bar_and_Baz foo]``()
+{
+}
+''']
+
+Will generate:
+
+ void ``[@http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foo#Foo.2C_Bar_and_Baz foo]``()
+ {
+ }
+
+When escaping from code to QuickBook, only phrase level markups are
+allowed. Block level markups like lists, tables etc. are not allowed.
+
+[endsect]
+[section Preformatted]
+
+Sometimes, you don't want some preformatted text to be parsed as C++. In such
+cases, use the [^[pre ... \]] markup block.
+
+[pre'''
+[pre
+
+ Some *preformatted* text Some *preformatted* text
+
+ Some *preformatted* text Some *preformatted* text
+
+ Some *preformatted* text Some *preformatted* text
+
+]
+''']
+
+Spaces, tabs and newlines are rendered as-is. Unlike all quickbook block level
+markup, pre (and Code) are the only ones that allow multiple newlines. The
+markup above will generate:
+
+[pre
+
+Some *preformatted* text Some *preformatted* text
+
+ Some *preformatted* text Some *preformatted* text
+
+ Some *preformatted* text Some *preformatted* text
+

+Notice that unlike Code, phrase markup such as font style is still permitted
+inside =pre= blocks.

+[tip This is a tip]
+[important This is important]
+[caution This is a caution]

+[h1 Heading 1]
+[h2 Heading 2]
+[h3 Heading 3]
+[h4 Heading 4]
+[h5 Heading 5]
+[h6 Heading 6]
+
+Headings 1-3 \[h1 h2 and h3\] will automatically have anchors with normalized
+names with [^name="section_id.normalized_header_text"] (i.e. valid characters are
+=a-z=, =A-Z=, =0-9= and =_=. All non-valid characters are converted to underscore
+and all upper-case are converted to lower-case. For example: Heading
+1 in section Section 2 will be normalized to [^section_2.heading_1]). You can use:
+
+[pre'''
+[link section_id.normalized_header_text The link text]
+''']
+
+to link to them. See __anchor_links__ and __section__ for more info.
+
+[endsect]
+[section Generic Heading]
+
+In cases when you don't want to care about the heading level (1 to 6), you
+can use the /Generic Heading/:
+
+[pre'''
+[heading Heading]
+''']
+
+The /Generic Heading/ assumes the level, plus one, of the innermost section
+where it is placed. For example, if it is placed in the outermost section,
+then, it assumes /h2/.
+
+Headings are often used as an alternative to sections. It is used
+particularly if you do not want to start a new section. In many cases,
+however, headings in a particular section is just flat. Example:
+
+[pre'''
+[section A]
+[h2 X]
+[h2 Y]
+[h2 Z]
+[endsect]
+''']
+
+Here we use h2 assuming that section A is the outermost level. If it is
+placed in an inner level, you'll have to use h3, h4, etc. depending on
+where the section is. In general, it is the section level plus one. It is
+rather tedious, however, to scan the section level everytime. If you
+rewrite the example above as shown below, this will be automatic:
+
+[pre'''
+[section A]
+[heading X]
+[heading Y]
+[heading Z]
+[endsect]
+''']
+
+They work well regardless where you place them. You can rearrange sections
+at will without any extra work to ensure correct heading levels. In fact,
+with /section/ and /heading/, you have all you need. /h1/../h6/ becomes
+redundant. /h1/../h6/ might be deprecated in the future.
+
+[endsect]
+[section Macros]
+
+[pre'''
+[def macro_identifier some text]
+''']
+
+When a macro is defined, the identifier replaces the text anywhere in the
+file, in paragraphs, in markups, etc. macro_identifier is a string of non-
+white space characters except '\]'. A macro may not follow an alphabetic
+character or the underscore. The replacement text can be any phrase (even
+marked up). Example:
+
+[pre'''
+[def sf_logo [$http://sourceforge.net/sflogo.php?group_id=28447&type=1]]
+sf_logo
+''']
+
+Now everywhere the sf_logo is placed, the picture will be inlined.
+
+[def sf_logo [$http://sourceforge.net/sflogo.php?group_id=28447&type=1]]
+sf_logo
+
+[tip It's a good idea to use macro identifiers that are distinguishable.
+For instance, in this document, macro identifiers have two leading and
+trailing underscores (e.g. [^'''__spirit__''']). The reason is to avoid
+unwanted macro replacement.]
+
+Links (URLS) and images are good candidates for macros. *1*) They tend to
+change a lot. It is a good idea to place all links and images in one place near the top
+to make it easy to make changes. *2*) The syntax is not pretty. It's easier to read and
+write, e.g. [^'''__spirit__'''] than [^'''[@http://spirit.sourceforge.net Spirit]'''].
+
+Some more examples:

+[pre'''
+[def :-) [$theme/smiley.png]]

+(See __images__ and __links__)

+
+[endsect]
+[section Predefined Macros]
+
+Quickbook has some predefined macros that you can already use.
+
+[table Predefined Macros
+ [[Macro] [Meaning] [Example]]
+ [['''__DATE__'''] [Today's date] [__DATE__]]
+ [['''__TIME__'''] [The current time] [__TIME__]]
+ [['''__FILENAME__'''] [Quickbook source filename] [__FILENAME__]]
+]
+
+[endsect]
+[section Templates]
+
+Templates provide a more versatile text substitution mechanism. Templates
+come in handy when you need to create parameterizable, multi-line,
+boilerplate text that you specify once and expand many times. Templates
+accept one or more arguments. These arguments act like place-holders for
+text replacement. Unlike simple macros, which are limited to phrase level
+markup, templates can contain block level markup (e.g. paragraphs, code
+blocks and tables).
+
+Example template:
+
+[pre'''
+[template person[name age what]
+
+Hi, my name is [name]. I am [age] years old. I am a [what].
+
+]
+''']
+
+[template person[name age what]
+
+Hi, my name is [name]. I am [age] years old. I am a [what].
+
+]
+
+[heading Template Identifier]
+
+Template identifiers can either consist of:
+
+* An initial alphabetic character or the underscore, followed by
+ zero or more alphanumeric characters or the underscore. This is
+ similar to your typical C/C++ identifier.
+* A single character punctuation (a non-alphanumeric printable character)
+
+[heading Formal Template Arguments]
+
+Template formal arguments are identifiers consisting of an initial
+alphabetic character or the underscore, followed by zero or more
+alphanumeric characters or the underscore. This is similar to your typical
+C/C++ identifier.
+
+A template formal argument temporarily hides a template of the same name at
+the point where the [link quickbook.syntax.block.templates.template_expansion
+template is expanded]. Note that the body of the [^person] template above
+refers to [^name] [^age] and [^what] as [^\[name\]] [^\[age\]] and
+[^\[what\]]. [^name] [^age] and [^what] are actually templates that exist
+in the duration of the template call.
+
+[heading Template Body]
+
+The template body can be just about any QuickBook block or phrase. There
+are actually two forms. Templates may be phrase or block level. Phrase
+templates are of the form:
+
+[pre'''
+[template sample[arg1 arg2...argN] replacement text... ]
+''']
+
+Block templates are of the form:
+
+[pre'''
+[template sample[arg1 arg2...argN]
+replacement text...
+]
+''']
+
+The basic rule is as follows: if a newline immediately follows the argument
+list, then it is a block template, otherwise, it is a phrase template.
+Phrase templates are typically expanded as part of phrases. Like macros,
+block level elements are not allowed in phrase templates.
+
+[heading Template Expansion]
+
+You expand a template this way:
+
+[pre'''
+[template_identifier arg1..arg2..arg3]
+''']
+
+At template expansion, you supply the actual arguments. The template will
+be expanded with your supplied arguments. Example:
+
+[pre'''
+[person James Bond..39..Spy]
+[person Santa Clause..87..Big Red Fatso]
+''']
+
+Which will expand to:
+
+[person James Bond..39..Spy]
+[person Santa Clause..87..Big Red Fatso]
+
+[caution A word of caution: Templates are recursive. A template can call
+another template or even itself, directly or indirectly. There are no
+control structures in QuickBook (yet) so this will always mean infinite
+recursion. QuickBook can detect this situation and report an error if
+recursion exceeds a certain limit.]
+
+Each actual argument can be a word, a text fragment or just about any [link
+quickbook.syntax.phrase QuickBook phrase]. Arguments are separated by the
+double dot [^".."] and terminated by the close parenthesis.
+
+[heading Nullary Templates]
+
+Nullary templates look and act like simple macros. Example:
+
+[pre'''
+[template alpha[]'''&#945;''']
+[template beta[]'''&#946;''']
+''']
+
+[template alpha[]'''α''']
+[template beta[]'''β''']
+
+Expanding:
+
+[pre'''Some squigles...[*[alpha][beta]]''']
+
+We have:
+
+Some squiggles...[*[alpha][beta]]
+
+The difference with macros are
+
+* The explicit [link quickbook.syntax.block.templates.template_expansion
+ template expansion syntax]. This is an advantage because, now, we don't
+ have to use obscure naming conventions like double underscores (e.g.
+ \_\_alpha\_\_) to avoid unwanted
+ macro replacement.
+* The template is expanded at the point where it is invoked. A macro is
+ expanded immediately at its point of declaration. This is subtle and
+ can cause a slight difference in behavior especially if you refer to
+ other macros and templates in the body.
+
+The empty brackets after the template identifier ([^alpha\[\]]) indicates no
+arguments. If the template body does not look like a template argument list, we
+can elide the empty brackets. Example:
+
+[pre'''
+[template aristotle_quote Aristotle: [*['Education is the best provision
+for the journey to old age.]]]
+''']
+
+[template aristotle_quote\ Aristotle: [*['Education is the best provision
+for the journey to old age.]]]
+
+Expanding:
+
+[pre'''
+Here's a quote from [aristotle_quote].
+''']
+
+We have:
+
+Here's a quote from [aristotle_quote].
+
+The disadvantage is that you can't avoid the space between the template
+identifier, `aristotle_quote`, and the template body "Aristotle...". This space
+will be part of the template body. If that space is unwanted, use empty
+brackets or use the space escape: "`\ `". Example:
+
+[pre'''
+[template tag\ _tag]
+''']
+
+[template tag\ _tag]
+
+Then expanding:
+
+[pre'''
+`struct` x[tag];
+''']
+
+We have:
+
+`struct` x[tag];
+
+You have a couple of ways to do it. I personally prefer the explicit empty
+brackets, though.
+
+[heading Simple Arguments]
+
+As mentioned, arguments are separated by the double dot [^".."]. If there
+are less arguments passed than expected, QuickBook attempts to break the
+last argument into two or more arguments following this logic:
+
+* Break the last argument into two, at the first space found ([^'', '\\n',
+ \\t' or '\\r']).
+* Repeat until there are enough arguments or if there are no more spaces
+ found (in which case, an error is reported).
+
+For example:
+
+[pre'''
+[template simple[a b c d] [a][b][c][d]]
+[simple w x y z]
+''']
+
+will produce:
+
+[template simple[a b c d] [a][b][c][d]]
+[simple w x y z]
+
+"w x y z" is initially treated as a single argument because we didn't
+supply any [^".."] separators. However, since [^simple] expects 4
+arguments, "w x y z" is broken down iteratively (applying the logic above)
+until we have "w", "x", "y" and "z".
+
+QuickBook only tries to get the arguments it needs. For example:
+
+[pre'''
+[simple w x y z trail]
+''']
+
+will produce:
+
+[simple w x y z trail]
+
+The arguments being: "w", "x", "y" and "z trail".
+
+It should be obvious now that for simple arguments with no spaces, we can
+get by without separating the arguments with [^".."] separators. It is
+possible to combine [^".."] separators with the argument passing
+simplification presented above. Example:
+
+[pre'''
+[simple what do you think ..m a n?]
+''']
+
+will produce:
+
+[simple what do you think ..m a n?]
+
+[heading Punctuation Templates]
+
+With templates, one of our objectives is to allow us to rewrite QuickBook
+in QuickBook (as a qbk library). For that to happen, we need to accommodate
+single character punctuation templates which are fairly common in
+QuickBook. You might have noticed that single character punctuations are
+allowed as [link quickbook.syntax.block.templates.template_identifier
+template identifiers]. Example:
+
+[pre'''
+[template ![bar] '''<hey>'''[bar]'''</hey>''']
+''']
+
+Now, expanding this:
+
+[pre'''
+[!baz]
+''']
+
+We will have:
+
+[pre
+<hey>baz</hey>

+ [[R3-C0] [R3-C1] [R3-C2]]
+]
+
+The table title is optional. The first row of the table is automatically
+treated as the table header; that is, it is wrapped in
+[^<thead>...</thead>] XML tags. Note that unlike the original QuickDoc, the
+columns are nested in [ cells... ]. The syntax is free-format and allows
+big cells to be formatted nicely. Example:
+
+[pre'''
+[table Table with fat cells
+ [[Heading 1] [Heading 2]]
+ [
+ [Row 0, Col 0: a small cell]

+
+and thus:

+]
+''']
+
+[table Table with code
+ [[Comment] [Code]]
+ [
+ [My first program]
+ [``
+ #include <iostream>
+
+ int main()
+ {
+ std::cout << "Hello, World!" << std::endl;
+ return 0;
+ }
+ ``]
+ ]
+]
+
+[endsect]
+[section Variable Lists]
+
+[pre'''
+[variablelist A Variable List
+ [[term 1] [The definition of term 1]]
+ [[term 2] [The definition of term 2]]
+ [[term 3] [The definition of term 3]]
+]
+''']
+
+will generate:
+
+[variablelist A Variable List
+ [[term 1] [The definition of term 1]]
+ [[term 2] [The definition of term 2]]
+ [[term 3] [The definition of term 3]]
+]
+
+The rules for variable lists are the same as for tables, except that
+only 2 "columns" are allowed. The first column contains the terms, and
+the second column contains the definitions. Those familiar with HTML
+will recognize this as a "definition list".
+
+[endsect]
+[section Include]
+
+You can include one QuickBook file from another. The syntax is simply:
+
+[pre'''
+[include someother.qbk]
+''']
+
+The included file will be processed as if it had been cut and pasted
+into the current document, with the following exceptions:
+
+* The '''__FILENAME__''' predefined macro will reflect the name of the
+ file currently being processed.
+* Any macros defined in the included file are scoped to that file.
+
+The [^\[include\]] directive lets you specify a document id to use for the
+included file. When this id is not explicitly specified, the id defaults to
+the filename ("someother", in the example above). You can specify the id
+like this:
+
+[pre'''
+[include:someid someother.qbk]
+''']
+
+All auto-generated anchors will use the document id as a unique prefix. So
+for instance, if there is a top section in someother.qbk named "Intro", the
+named anchor for that section will be "someid.intro", and you can link to
+it with [^\[link someid.intro The Intro\]].
+
+[endsect]
+
+[section Import]
+
+When documenting code, you'd surely need to present code from actual source
+files. While it is possible to copy some code and paste them in your QuickBook
+file, doing so is error prone and the extracted code in the documentation tends
+to get out of sync with the actual code as the code evolves. The problem, as
+always, is that once documentation is written, the tendency is for the docs to
+languish in the archives without maintenance.
+
+QuickBook's import facility provides a nice solution.
+
+[heading Example]
+
+You can effortlessly import code snippets from source code into your QuickBook.
+The following illustrates how this is done:
+
+[pre'''
+[import ../test/stub.cpp]
+[foo]
+[bar]
+''']
+
+The first line:
+
+[pre'''
+[import ../test/stub.cpp]
+''']
+
+collects specially marked-up code snippets from [@../../test/stub.cpp stub.cpp]
+and places them in your QuickBook file as virtual templates. Each of the
+specially marked-up code snippets has a name (e.g. `foo` and `bar` in the
+example above). This shall be the template identifier for that particular code
+snippet. The second and third line above does the actual template expansion:
+
+[pre'''
+[foo]
+[bar]
+''']
+
+And the result is:
+
+[import ../test/stub.cpp]
+[foo]
+[bar]
+
+[heading Code Snippet Markup]
+
+Note how the code snippets in [@../../test/stub.cpp stub.cpp] get marked up. We
+use distinguishable comments following the form:
+
+ //[id
+ some code here
+ //]
+
+The first comment line above initiates a named code-snippet. This prefix will
+not be visible in quickbook. The entire code-snippet in between `//[id` and
+`//]` will be inserted as a template in quickbook with name ['/id/]. The comment
+`//]` ends a code-snippet This too will not be visible in quickbook.
+
+[heading Special Comments]
+
+Special comments of the form:
+
+ //` some [*quickbook] markup here
+
+and:
+
+ /*` some [*quickbook] markup here */
+
+will be parsed by QuickBook. This can contain quickbook /blocks/ (e.g. sections,
+paragraphs, tables, etc). In the first case, the initial slash-slash, tick and
+white-space shall be ignored. In the second, the initial slash-star-tick and the
+final star-slash shall be ignored.
+
+[heading Callouts]
+
+Special comments of the form:
+
+ /*< some [*quickbook] markup here >*/
+
+will be regarded as callouts. These will be collected, numbered and
+rendered as a "callout bug" (a small icon with a number). After the
+whole snippet is parsed, the callout list is generated. See
+[@http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/callout.html Callouts] for details.
+Example:
+
+[foo_bar]
+
+Checkout [@../../test/stub.cpp stub.cpp] to see the actual code.

+[section:install Installation and configuration]
+
+This section provides some guidelines on how to install and configure
+BoostBook and Quickbook under several operating systems.
+
+Before continuing, it is very important that you keep this in mind: if you
+try to build some documents and the process breaks due to misconfiguration,
+be absolutely sure to delete any `bin` and `bin.v2` directories generated
+by the build before trying again. Otherwise your configuration fixes will
+not take any effect.
+
+[section:windows Windows 2000, XP, 2003, Vista]
+
+[python]
+
+[:['Section contributed by Julio M. Merino Vidal]]
+
+The following instructions apply to any Windows system based on Windows
+2000, including Windows XP, Windows 2003 Server and Windows Vista. The
+paths shown below are taken from a Windows Vista machine; you will need to
+adjust them to match your system in case you are running an older version.
+
+# First of all you need to have a copy of `xsltproc` for Windows. There
+ are many ways to get this tool, but to keep things simple, use the
+ [@http://www.zlatkovic.com/pub/libxml/ binary packages] made by Igor
+ Zlatkovic. At the very least, you need to download the following
+ packages: `iconv`, `zlib`, `libxml2` and `libxslt`.
+
+# Unpack all these packages in the same directory so that you get unique
+ `bin`, `include` and `lib` directories within the hierarchy. These
+ instructions use `C:\Users\example\Documents\boost\xml` as the root for
+ all files.
+
+# From the command line, go to the `bin` directory and launch
+ `xsltproc.exe` to ensure it works. You should get usage information on
+ screen.
+
+# Download [@http://www.docbook.org/xml/4.2/docbook-xml-4.2.zip Docbook XML
+ 4.2] and unpack it in the same directory used above. That is:
+ `C:\Users\example\Documents\boost\xml\docbook-xml`.
+
+# Download the latest
+ [@http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=21935&package_id=16608
+ Docbook XSL] version and unpack it, again in the same directory
+ used before. To make things easier, rename the directory created
+ during the extraction to `docbook-xsl` (bypassing the version name):
+ `C:\Users\example\Documents\boost\xml\docbook-xsl`.
+
+# Add the following to your `user-config.jam` file, which should live in
+ your home directory (`%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%`). You must already have it
+ somewhere or otherwise you could not be building Boost (i.e. missing
+ tools configuration).
+
+ using xsltproc
+ : "C:/Users/example/Documents/boost/xml/bin/xsltproc.exe"
+ ;
+
+ using boostbook
+ : "C:/Users/example/Documents/boost/xml/docbook-xsl"
+ : "C:/Users/example/Documents/boost/xml/docbook-xml"
+ ;
+
+The above steps are enough to get a functional BoostBook setup. Quickbook
+will be automatically built when needed. If you want to avoid these
+rebuilds:
+
+# Go to Quickbook's source directory (`BOOST_ROOT\tools\quickbook`).
+
+# Build the utility by issuing `bjam --v2`.
+
+# Copy the resulting `quickbook.exe` binary (located under the
+ `BOOST_ROOT\bin.v2` hierarchy) to a safe place. Following our previous
+ example, you can install it into:
+ `C:\Users\example\Documents\boost\xml\bin`.
+
+# Add the following to your `user-config.jam` file:
+
+ using quickbook
+ : "C:/Users/example/Documents/boost/xml/bin/quickbook.exe"
+ ;
+
+[endsect]
+
+[section:linux Debian, Ubuntu]
+
+The following instructions apply to Debian and its derivatives. They are based
+on a Ubuntu Edgy install but should work on other Debian based systems.
+
+First install the `bjam`, `xsltproc`, `docbook-xsl` and `docbook-xml` packages.
+For example, using `apt-get`:
+
+ sudo apt-get install xsltprc docbook-xsl docbook-xml
+
+If you're planning on building boost's documentation, you'll also need to
+install the `doxygen` package as well.
+
+Next, we need to configure Boost Build to compile BoostBook files. Add the
+following to your `user-config.jam` file, which should be in your home
+directory. If you don't have one, create a file containing this text. For more
+information on setting up `user-config.jam`, see the
+[@http://boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/advanced/configuration.html Boost
+Build documentation].
+
+ using xsltproc ;
+
+ using boostbook
+ : /usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/nwalsh
+ : /usr/share/xml/docbook/schema/dtd/4.2
+ ;
+
+ # Remove this line if you're not using doxygen
+ using doxygen ;
+
+The above steps are enough to get a functional BoostBook setup. Quickbook
+will be automatically built when needed. If you want to avoid these
+rebuilds:
+
+# Go to Quickbook's source directory (`BOOST_ROOT/tools/quickbook`).
+
+# Build the utility by issuing `bjam --v2`.
+
+# Copy the resulting `quickbook` binary (located under the
+ `BOOST_ROOT/bin.v2` hierarchy) to a safe place. The traditional location is
+ `/usr/local/bin`.
+
+# Add the following to your `user-config.jam` file, using the full path of the
+ quickbook executable:

+
+[heading Can I use QuickBook for non-Boost documentation?]
+
+QuickBook can be used for non-Boost documentation with a little extra work.
+
+[:['Faq contributed by Michael Marcin]]
+
+When building HTML documentation with BoostBook a Boost C++ Libraries header
+is added to the files. When using QuickBook to document projects outside of
+Boost this is not desirable. This behavior can be overridden at the BoostBook
+level by specifying some XSLT options. When using Boost Build version 2 (BBv2)
+this can be achieved by adding parameters to the BoostBook target declaration.
+
+For example:
+[pre
+using quickbook ;
+
+xml my_doc : my_doc.qbk ;
+
+boostbook standalone
+ :
+ my_doc
+ :
+ <xsl:param>boost.image.src=images/my_project_logo.png
