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

<div class="blockquote"><blockquote class="blockquote"><p>
        <a href="../../tools/quickbook/doc/quickbook.qbk" target="_top">quickbook.qbk</a>
      </p></blockquote></div>
<p>
      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
      <a href="http://www.boost.org/doc/html/boostbook.html" target="_top">BoostBook</a>
      instead of HTML. The <a href="http://www.boost.org/doc/html/boostbook.html" target="_top">BoostBook</a>
      documentation format is an extension of <a href="http://www.docbook.org/" target="_top">DocBook</a>,
      an SGML or XML based format for describing documentation.

        You don't need to know anything about <a href="http://www.boost.org/doc/html/boostbook.html" target="_top">BoostBook</a>
        or <a href="http://www.docbook.org/" target="_top">DocBook</a> to use QuickBook.
        A basic understanding of <a href="http://www.docbook.org/" target="_top">DocBook</a>
        might help, but shouldn't be necessary. For really advanced stuff you will
        need to know <a href="http://www.docbook.org/" target="_top">DocBook</a>, but you
        can ignore it at first, and maybe continue to do so.

      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:
