One of the things that seems to me to be missing is some kind of quick description of \
the overall &quot;theory of cmake&quot;. I am a top-down kind of person, so I really \
dislike being left with nothing but &quot;here, type this in&quot; which is what a \
lot of the web stuff seems to be. A sketch of how it works conceptually would help \
me. (Of course, I need examples too.)<br> \
