 replace_extension is documented here:
 
 http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_35_0/libs/filesystem/doc/refer
 ence.html#Convenience-functions
 
 
 but in the actual library it is named 'change_extension' (I  dont know
why)
 
 Personally I find the documentation for filesystem pretty 
 hard to navigate. I recommend using doxygen to navigate the 
 source, since that gives a fairly complete reference.  I use 
 a PC so I can generate a chm file with a searchable index and 
 everything.
(I tried to attach the docs but the message got to big for the mailing
list)
