<p>
      Since the current version of VMD has been drastically changed to make it easier
      to use VMD functionality this section details equivalent functionality for
      previous version 1.7 VMD macros.
    </p>
<p>
      The changes in functionality involve the parsing of sequences. The equivalent
      to all the V1.7 functionality, which looks for various data types at the beginning
      of a sequence, is encompassed by the V1.8 macro BOOST_VMD_ELEM(0,sequence,...),
      where '0' is the first sequence element and 'sequence' is the sequence, with
      its optional parameters.
    </p>

    </h4>
<p>
      V1.7
    </p>
<p>
      BOOST_VMD_IDENTIFIER(sequence,keys,...) looked for an identifier at the beginning
      of a sequence and returned a 2-element tuple, where the first element is the
      matching index starting with 1, or 0 if no identifier is found, and the second
      tuple element is the rest of the sequence or emptiness if no identifier is
      found.
    </p>
<p>
      V1.8 equivalent
    </p>
<p>
      BOOST_VMD_ELEM(0,sequence,(identifiers),BOOST_VMD_TYPE_IDENTIFIER,BOOST_VMD_RETURN_AFTER,BOOST_VMD_RETURN_INDEX)
      returns a 3-element tuple where the identifier found is the first tuple element,
      the rest of the sequence is the second tuple element, and the matching index,
      starting with 0, is the 3rd tuple element. If no identifier is found all elements
      of the returned tuple are empty.
    </p>
<p>
      V1.7
    </p>
<p>
      BOOST_VMD_BEGIN_IDENTIFIER(sequence,keys,...) looked for an identifier at the
      beginning of a sequence and returned the matching index starting with 1, or
      0 if no identifier is found.
    </p>
<p>
      V1.8 equivalent
    </p>
<p>
      BOOST_VMD_ELEM(0,sequence,(identifiers),BOOST_VMD_TYPE_IDENTIFIER,BOOST_VMD_RETURN_INDEX)
      returns a 2-element tuple where the identifier found is the first tuple element
      and the matching index, starting with 0, is the 2nd tuple element. If no identifier
      is found both elements of the returned tuple are empty.
    </p>
<p>
      V1.7
    </p>
<p>
      BOOST_VMD_AFTER_IDENTIFIER(sequence,keys,...) looked for an identifier at the
      beginning of a sequence and returned the rest of the sequence or emptiness
      if no identifier is found.
    </p>
<p>
      V1.8 equivalent
    </p>
<p>
      BOOST_VMD_ELEM(0,sequence,(identifiers),BOOST_VMD_TYPE_IDENTIFIER,BOOST_VMD_RETURN_ONLY_AFTER)
      is the exact equivalent.
    </p>
<p>
      V1.7
    </p>
<p>
      BOOST_VMD_IS_BEGIN_IDENTIFIER(sequence,keys,...) returns 1 if input begins
      with an identifier, else 0 if it does not.
    </p>
<p>
      V1.8 equivalent
    </p>
<p>
      BOOST_VMD_ELEM(0,sequence,(identifiers),BOOST_VMD_TYPE_IDENTIFIER) returns

      as the exact equivalent.
