Dear all,

I would like to add a shortcut in the context menu in windows 7 for txt files, 
so that I have an option to start cmake with the selected "CMakeLists.txt"  as 
input.
I know how to add an extension modifying the registry ( go to 
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\txtfile\shell  , create a new key (for example "Run CMake", 
add a sub-key "command " and set the value "default" with the program to 
launch).
I tried to run "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\CMake 2.8\\bin\\cmake-gui.exe" %1 , 
but cmake is launched showing the last build.
Anyway, this shortcut works correctly in a build directory (if I run it from a 
CMakeCache.txt it opens Cmake-gui with the cached values).

I can't find a command line option to start it in the desired source folder. I 
actually found an option list for cmake-gui 
http://linux.die.net/man/1/cmake-gui , but it seems they don't work . In this 
thread I haven't found an option for setting the source directory either 
http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2013-November/056293.html .
In brief , my question is: is there any command line option for starting cmake 
with a custom source?
