 # Usage:
 #
-#   Create a new empty directory anywhere (preferably not in the boost tree).
-#   Copy this Makefile to that new directory and rename it to "Makefile"
-#   Set the BOOST_* pathnames below.
+#   make copy          Copy the sources and tests
+#   make               Compile all sources
+#   make test          Run doctest tests
+#   make clean         Remove all object files
+#   make del           Remove the sources and tests
 #
-#   The idea is that the build directory is on a Unix filesystem that
-#   is mounted on a PC using SAMBA. Use this makefile under both Unix
-#   and Windows:
-#
-#   Unix: make softlinks     Create softlinks to source code and tests
-#   Win:  make               Compile all sources
-#   Win:  make test          Run doctest tests
-#   Unix: make clean         Remove all object files
-#   Unix: make unlink        Remove softlinks
