Description
Document all command-line options for Boost Jam & Boost Build.
Here's a list of such options that can be used as a starting point.
Options marked with ? are not documented so someone can use it as a checklist when documenting them.
Note that this does not include targets like clean/debug/release/... but only options prefixed with a double dash.
