I've installed boost. ---------- SIDE NOTE -------------------------- - during the process I was not sure what MSVC version I have The VS 2013 express that I use is located in: Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0 But running the cl.exe (the compiler) within that directory gives Visual C++ version 18!! So I assume I go by the first number. So I downloaded boost windows installer version MSVC-12.0-32bit (32-bit because something nearly always goes wrong in the future like one library is 64-bit while another is 32-bit, so I simply chose 32-bit even though I'm on a Windows 8 64-bit machine). ------------------------------------------------------------- Anyway, boost log attached, I tried running boostrap.bat in the boost install directory to try and build boost jam and it failed but maybe you can help there. Or just help me find pre-built binaries because they're not located on SourceForge where all the links say they are located. -- Please Download and See! Thanks.
