Boost 101?

Good day to everyone,

I have been monitoring boost for quite some time now, as well as
stealing bits and pieces here and there. Now I want to actually start
using it "as intended", on several UNIX platforms and CYGWIN. Some of
those environments do not have a lot of disk space (web presence
accounts).

So, where would I find a small, but to-the-point tutorial, explaining
the directory organization, library interdependence, etc., so that I
can get the libraries I want and skip the bulky unnecessary stuff (for
my projects, that is)?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Leo.
