+Visual Studio 12 2013
+---------------------
+
+Generates Visual Studio 12 (VS 2013) project files.
+
+For compatibility with CMake versions prior to 3.0, one may specify this
+generator using the name "Visual Studio 12" without the year component.
+
+Project Types
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Only Visual C++ and C# projects may be generated (and Fortran with
+Intel compiler integration).  Other types of projects (JavaScript,
+Powershell, Python, etc.) are not supported.
+
+Platform Selection
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The default target platform name (architecture) is ``Win32``.
+
+.. versionadded:: 3.1
+  The :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM` variable may be set, perhaps
+  via the :manual:`cmake(1)` ``-A`` option, to specify a target platform
+  name (architecture).  For example:
+
+  * ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 12 2013" -A Win32``
+  * ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 12 2013" -A x64``
+  * ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 12 2013" -A ARM``
+
+For compatibility with CMake versions prior to 3.1, one may specify
+a target platform name optionally at the end of the generator name.
+This is supported only for:
+
+``Visual Studio 12 2013 Win64``
+  Specify target platform ``x64``.
+
+``Visual Studio 12 2013 ARM``
+  Specify target platform ``ARM``.
+
+Toolset Selection
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The ``v120`` toolset that comes with Visual Studio 12 2013 is selected by
+default.  The :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET` option may be set, perhaps
+via the :manual:`cmake(1)` ``-T`` option, to specify another toolset.
+
+.. |VS_TOOLSET_HOST_ARCH_DEFAULT| replace::
+   By default this generator uses the 32-bit variant even on a 64-bit host.
+
+.. include:: VS_TOOLSET_HOST_ARCH_LEGACY.txt
