From 69d73d27cba5249e3cfe1ba12ccdfbc3b5962e8b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Brad King Date: Mon, 3 Mar 2014 14:36:48 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Help: Mention in find_package that cmake-gui step is Windows-only (#14781) Recently used cmake-gui locations are searched only on Windows because the Windows registry is used to record the values.
