@ -87,8 +87,25 @@ file.  As many boost headers include other boost headers, installing one at
at time is painful. This is a first try at making installation easier.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Installing Boost Libraries</h2>
<p>Many boost libraries are implemented entirely within their header
files.&nbsp; The only preparation for their use is to add the path for the
parent directory of the boost header sub-directory to your compiler's list of
#include search directories.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>For example, using Windows 2000, if you have unzipped release 1.18.1 from
boost_all.zip into the top level directory of your C drive, for Borland, GCC,
and Metrowerks compilers add '-Ic:/boost_1_18_1' to the compiler command line,
and for the Microsoft compiler add '/I &quot;c:/boost_1_18_1&quot;'.&nbsp; For
IDE's, add 'c:/boost_1_18_1' (or whatever you have renamed it to) to the
search list using the appropriate GUI dialog.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>A few boost libraries are implemented by separate source files, and thus
require compilation on your system to link properly.&nbsp; Boost does not
currently have an overall &quot;build&quot; or &quot;make&quot; mechanism in
place.</p>
