That solution works for me.  Thanks for your help!

An "install" of a CMake based project is invoked something like this
from within a generated Visual Studio project:

    cmake.exe -DBUILD_TYPE=$(Configuration) -P cmake_install.cmake

If you dig into the (generated) cmake_install.cmake file, you'll see
a chunk like this right near the top of the file:

    if(NOT DEFINED CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX)
      set(CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX "C:/Program Files (x86)/Tutorial")
    endif()

One thing you could do is write your own custom install command that
passes in a value of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX with the per-configuration
suffix you're looking for.

    cmake.exe -DBUILD_TYPE=${CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR}
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}${CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR} -P
cmake_install.cmake


HTH,
David C.
