+# This file is used to configure your Boost.Build installation.
+# You can modify this file in place, or you can place it it
+# permanent location so that it's not overwritten should you
+# get new version of Boost.Build. See:
+#
+# http://boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/reference.html#bbv2.reference.init
+#
+# for documentation about permanent location.
+
+# This file specifies which toolsets (C++ compilers), libraries,
+# and other tools are available. Often, you should be able to
+# just uncomment existing example lines and adjus them to taste.
+# The complete list of supported tools, and configuration instructions
+# can be found at:
+#
+# http://boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/reference/tools.html
+#
+
+# This file uses Jam language syntax to describe available tools.
+# Mostly, there are 'using' lines, that contain the name of the used
+# tools, and parameters to pass to those tools -- where paremeters
+# are separated by semicolons.
+# Important syntax notes:
+#
+# - Both ':' and ';' must be separated from other tokens by whitespace
+# - The '\' symbol is quote character, so when specifying Windows paths
+# it's recommended to use '/' instead, or use '\\'.
+#
+# More details about syntax can be found at:
+#
+# http://boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/advanced.html#bbv2.advanced.jam_language

-# Toolset declarations are most important in this file. They tell Boost.Build
-# what compilers are available and where to look for them. The first toolset
-# will become "default" one.
-# Some important libraries can also be configured.
-# Uncomment relevant parts to suite your local configuration and preferences.
