Download and unzip Some library docs missing (align, algorithm...) But as short of time, I didn't build libraries to /lib from scratch but just ran b2 on /math/test and /mat/example and they built and ran OK (VS Pro 2013 on Windows 8.1). Math/docs look OK at a glance. (and have also probably increased in size ;-( It looks slightly odd that the master says http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/master/doc/html/Assignable.html has a banner saying "This is documentation for a development version of boost". But perhaps this will be changed for the final release? FWIW Paul PS OK (what happened to the 7z version?) --- Paul A. Bristow Prizet Farmhouse Kendal UK LA8 8AB +44 01539 561830
