Greg, did you also see an option to create IDE project files? Could you try to do this, if possible, and report if this works? According to <http://www.cmake.org/>: "CMake generates native makefiles and workspaces that can be used in the compiler environment of your choice". Unfortunately my Cygwin and Linux cmake versions don't have generator options for IDE files enabled (and also no "NMake Makefiles" option). > Maybe we should start a README.cmake file, as I have text to put in it: That would probably be a good idea, but isn't there a chapter in the official docs?

That was my experience with the linux version as well. The generated Makefiles create all executables in the bin directory. Since CMake creates lots of files in the source tree, I switched to out-of-source building, and this worked pretty well. As Christophe mentioned elsewhere, this enables you to have different build options for the same source tree. An interesting aspect. This way I can have my Cygwin build with and w/o X11 from the same sources, and the same for testing under Linux with or w/o Xft and so on. But I don't know how to configure this with CMake yet.
