Hi David,

You can add to the search path CMake uses by appending to the
CMAKE_MODULE_PATH variable.  In your case, you'll probably want to set it
before the project command to make sure it's present for you're entire
project.  For example:

In your project, you create CMake directory where you would place
additional *.cmake files, such as your language files,or maybe even custom
Find modules.  Then in your top level CMakeLists file, you would have:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.12)
list(APPEND CMAKE_MODULE_PATH "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/CMake")
project(MyAwesomeProject)

Now anytime CMake searches for any sort of *.cmake file, it will also
search the CMake folder in your source tree.

Hope that helps.
- Chuck
