IMO `--help` & `-h` should be built-in and handled automatically. A cli tool without a help print shouldn't be allowed. ;)

@rcdailey Woop, sorry for late answer! I'm not super experienced in either platform (in the context of install-paths and conventions), and yes as you say _GNUInstallDirs_ focuses solely on Linux,...

I'm a little confused... At what part does the generation of the export target for the build-tree occur? Is this what _BoostConfig.cmake.in_ is used for? If I'm not missing something,...

Also, throw an eye on [BCM](https://github.com/boost-cmake/bcm) (Boost CMake Modules) and that [boost-cmake](https://github.com/boost-cmake) account in general. Seems to have gotten some momentum, with (not only) [Daniel Pfeifer](https://github.com/purpleKarrot) behind it who's been...

Wow, I misinterpreted your question and digressed heavily. Sorry! :) Scratch the part about pre-built binaries. Just imagine all third-party dependencies being version controlled in the same repo, and built...

Also the `VsDevCmd.bat` doesn't work: ``` ********************************************************************** ** Visual Studio 2019 Developer...
