and I can't really see what CMake does for
me that I
can't do for myself.
I suspect that it's biggest advantage is that the same (set of)
CMake input files can produce Makefiles, config files for Visual
Studio, and also for Apple's IDE / build system.
I also don't like it; it mixes system configuration with build
dependencies and is ugly and hard to learn. But that's a separate
issue.
