 This is an extra tool, not bundled with the default waf binary.

 Options are generated, in order to specify the location of boost includes/libraries.
 The `check_boost` configuration function allows to specify the used boost libraries.
-It can also provide default arguments to the --boost-static and --boost-mt command-line arguments.
+It can also provide default arguments to the --boost-mt command-line arguments.
 Everything will be packaged together in a BOOST component that you can use.
 
 When using MSVC, a lot of compilation flags need to match your BOOST build configuration:
  - you may have to add /EHsc to your CXXFLAGS or define boost::throw_exception if BOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS is defined.
    Errors: C4530
  - boost libraries will try to be smart and use the (pretty but often not useful) auto-linking feature of MSVC
-   So before calling `conf.check_boost` you might want to disabling by adding:
-       conf.env.DEFINES_BOOST += ['BOOST_ALL_NO_LIB']
+   So before calling `conf.check_boost` you might want to disabling by adding
+		conf.env.DEFINES_BOOST += ['BOOST_ALL_NO_LIB']
    Errors:
  - boost might also be compiled with /MT, which links the runtime statically.
    If you have problems with redefined symbols,
-        self.env['DEFINES_%s' % var] += ['BOOST_ALL_NO_LIB']
-        self.env['CXXFLAGS_%s' % var] += ['/MD', '/EHsc']
+		self.env['DEFINES_%s' % var] += ['BOOST_ALL_NO_LIB']
+		self.env['CXXFLAGS_%s' % var] += ['/MD', '/EHsc']
 Passing `--boost-linkage_autodetect` might help ensuring having a correct linkage in some basic cases.
