Help: Factor out find_* command duplication
These documents were represented in the builtin documentation using a common starting point with placeholders substituted by each command. Convert them back to this approach using the reStructuredText include directive and substitutions to avoid duplication.

find_file
---------
-Find the full path to a file.
-
-::
-
- find_file(<VAR> name1 [path1 path2 ...])
-
-This is the short-hand signature for the command that is sufficient in
-many cases. It is the same as find_file(<VAR> name1 [PATHS path1
-path2 ...])
-
-::
-
- find_file(
- <VAR>
- name | NAMES name1 [name2 ...]
- [HINTS path1 [path2 ... ENV var]]
- [PATHS path1 [path2 ... ENV var]]
- [PATH_SUFFIXES suffix1 [suffix2 ...]]
- [DOC "cache documentation string"]
- [NO_DEFAULT_PATH]
- [NO_CMAKE_ENVIRONMENT_PATH]
- [NO_CMAKE_PATH]
- [NO_SYSTEM_ENVIRONMENT_PATH]
- [NO_CMAKE_SYSTEM_PATH]
- [CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_BOTH |
- ONLY_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH |
- NO_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH]

-This command is used to find a full path to named file. A cache entry
-named by <VAR> is created to store the result of this command. If the
-full path to a file is found the result is stored in the variable and
-the search will not be repeated unless the variable is cleared. If
-nothing is found, the result will be <VAR>-NOTFOUND, and the search
-will be attempted again the next time find_file is invoked with the
-same variable. The name of the full path to a file that is searched
-for is specified by the names listed after the NAMES argument.
-Additional search locations can be specified after the PATHS argument.
-If ENV var is found in the HINTS or PATHS section the environment
-variable var will be read and converted from a system environment
-variable to a cmake style list of paths. For example ENV PATH would
-be a way to list the system path variable. The argument after DOC
-will be used for the documentation string in the cache. PATH_SUFFIXES
-specifies additional subdirectories to check below each search path.
-
-If NO_DEFAULT_PATH is specified, then no additional paths are added to
-the search. If NO_DEFAULT_PATH is not specified, the search process
-is as follows:
-
-1. Search paths specified in cmake-specific cache variables. These
-are intended to be used on the command line with a -DVAR=value. This
-can be skipped if NO_CMAKE_PATH is passed.
-
-::
+.. |FIND_XXX| replace:: find_file
+.. |NAMES| replace:: NAMES name1 [name2 ...]
+.. |SEARCH_XXX| replace:: full path to a file
+.. |SEARCH_XXX_DESC| replace:: full path to named file
+.. |XXX_SUBDIR| replace:: include
+.. |CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH_XXX| replace::
<prefix>/include/<arch> if CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE is set, and
- <prefix>/include for each <prefix> in CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
- CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH
- CMAKE_FRAMEWORK_PATH
-
-2. Search paths specified in cmake-specific environment variables.
-These are intended to be set in the user's shell configuration. This
-can be skipped if NO_CMAKE_ENVIRONMENT_PATH is passed.
-
-::
-
- <prefix>/include/<arch> if CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE is set, and
- <prefix>/include for each <prefix> in CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
- CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH
- CMAKE_FRAMEWORK_PATH
-
-3. Search the paths specified by the HINTS option. These should be
-paths computed by system introspection, such as a hint provided by the
-location of another item already found. Hard-coded guesses should be
-specified with the PATHS option.
+ |CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH_XXX_SUBDIR|
+.. |CMAKE_XXX_PATH| replace:: CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH
+.. |CMAKE_XXX_MAC_PATH| replace:: CMAKE_FRAMEWORK_PATH
-4. Search the standard system environment variables. This can be
-skipped if NO_SYSTEM_ENVIRONMENT_PATH is an argument.
-
-::
-
- PATH
- INCLUDE
-
-5. Search cmake variables defined in the Platform files for the
-current system. This can be skipped if NO_CMAKE_SYSTEM_PATH is
-passed.
-
-::
+.. |SYSTEM_ENVIRONMENT_PATH_XXX| replace:: PATH and INCLUDE
+.. |CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH_XXX| replace::
<prefix>/include/<arch> if CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE is set, and
- <prefix>/include for each <prefix> in CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH
- CMAKE_SYSTEM_INCLUDE_PATH
- CMAKE_SYSTEM_FRAMEWORK_PATH
-
-6. Search the paths specified by the PATHS option or in the
-short-hand version of the command. These are typically hard-coded
-guesses.

-On Darwin or systems supporting OS X Frameworks, the cmake variable
-CMAKE_FIND_FRAMEWORK can be set to empty or one of the following:
-
-::
-
- "FIRST" - Try to find frameworks before standard
- libraries or headers. This is the default on Darwin.
- "LAST" - Try to find frameworks after standard
- libraries or headers.
- "ONLY" - Only try to find frameworks.
- "NEVER" - Never try to find frameworks.
-
-On Darwin or systems supporting OS X Application Bundles, the cmake
-variable CMAKE_FIND_APPBUNDLE can be set to empty or one of the
-following:
-
-::
-
- "FIRST" - Try to find application bundles before standard
- programs. This is the default on Darwin.
- "LAST" - Try to find application bundles after standard
- programs.
- "ONLY" - Only try to find application bundles.
- "NEVER" - Never try to find application bundles.
-
-The CMake variable CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH specifies one or more
-directories to be prepended to all other search directories. This
-effectively "re-roots" the entire search under given locations. By
-default it is empty. It is especially useful when cross-compiling to
-point to the root directory of the target environment and CMake will
-search there too. By default at first the directories listed in
-CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH and then the non-rooted directories will be
-searched. The default behavior can be adjusted by setting
-CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_INCLUDE. This behavior can be manually
-overridden on a per-call basis. By using CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_BOTH
-the search order will be as described above. If
-NO_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH is used then CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH will not be
-used. If ONLY_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH is used then only the re-rooted
-directories will be searched.
-
-The default search order is designed to be most-specific to
-least-specific for common use cases. Projects may override the order
-by simply calling the command multiple times and using the NO_*
-options:
-
-::
+ |CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH_XXX_SUBDIR|
+.. |CMAKE_SYSTEM_XXX_PATH| replace:: CMAKE_SYSTEM_INCLUDE_PATH
+.. |CMAKE_SYSTEM_XXX_MAC_PATH| replace:: CMAKE_SYSTEM_FRAMEWORK_PATH
- find_file(<VAR> NAMES name PATHS paths... NO_DEFAULT_PATH)
- find_file(<VAR> NAMES name)
+.. |CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_XXX| replace::
+ CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_INCLUDE
-Once one of the calls succeeds the result variable will be set and
-stored in the cache so that no call will search again.
+.. include:: FIND_XXX.txt
