+--------------------
+
+Path to toolchain file supplied to :manual:`cmake(1)`.
+
+This variable is specified on the command line when cross-compiling with CMake.
+It is the path to a file which is read early in the CMake run and which specifies
+locations for compilers and toolchain utilities, and other target platform and
+compiler related information.
