While looking through the native samples I noticed that

  * in the Windows branch there are makefiles. Are these makefiles still needed 
now that we use CMake?
  * in the Unix branch there are no statements comparable to the windows branch 
that direct the
    install, which might be the reason why on Unix native sample binaries are 
wrongfully placed into
    the bin and lib directories. Not really knowing CMake it looks like adding 
the Windows
    installation statements to the Unix branch would be possible? If so, 
wouldn't it make sense to
    fold the native samples for Windows and Unix and have a single 
CMakeLists.txt to drive the
    compilation and installation of the native samples?
  * on Unix (Linux) the non native samples currently get installed to 
"@/share/ooRexx" rather than
    into "@/share/ooRexx/samples", where "@" would be "/usr" on Ubuntu. Should 
that be corrected?
      o Also, it seems that nowadays user installed applications should go into 
"/usr/local"
        instead? If so, should that be corrected or is this driven by CMake and 
should be left to it
        therefore?
  * the Unix definitions do not create/install the pdf documetnation files; 
would it make sense to
    install them on Unix too, if the documentation pdfs are present? If so, 
where should they be
    looked for and where should they be installed to on Unix, maybe to "@/ 
share/ooRexx/doc"?

So what do you say?
