Hello Paul,
Many thanks, seems a better solution than mine.
I created a custom target calling my script but doing this way I had to do
make install && make install_files, it doesn't look good.
Also had to change install(FILES) to file( COPY ).
I will try install(SCRIPT) later today.
Once again, thanks for the answer.
Daniel Yoshizawa.
