Synopsis
========

::

  cmake-gui [options]
  cmake-gui [options] <path-to-source>
  cmake-gui [options] <path-to-existing-build>

Description
===========

The "cmake-gui" executable is the CMake GUI.  Project configuration
settings may be specified interactively.  Brief instructions are
provided at the bottom of the window when the program is running.

CMake is a cross-platform build system generator.  Projects specify
their build process with platform-independent CMake listfiles included
in each directory of a source tree with the name CMakeLists.txt.
Users build a project by using CMake to generate a build system for a
native tool on their platform.
