So, is there a command I can place in my CMakeLists.txt files
which will cause them to produce a file named xyz.make (let's say)
instead of Makefile.

I still think Qt/qmake was right in providing the ability to change
the name of the Makefile. Before I discovered that, I could not use
the qmake system.
I agree that it would be a good feature to be able to change the name
of generated
makefiles, but if you dig the ML you'll see that **after discussion**
there is not
so many **useful** cases to do that.
But you home-brewed Makefile is not cross-platform which is one of the
primary target for using CMake :-]
I will use cmake to build the app on my various platforms
(Linux/Windows...).
Most of my convenience targets are only used during development (Linux)
so it is typically okay that they are not cross platform.

file(xxxx ...) commands
Yes I see.
But if I had the ability to change the name of the Makefile I could
start using cmake right now. If I have to rewrite my entire makefile
the cmake way (all or nothing) it will take weeks.
Anyway. I understand. We can leave it at that.
Thanks for all the help.
You might want to look at ExternalProject to just using custom commands
to run the old build system.
