"This command enables support for the named language in CMake. "
"This is the same as the project command but does not create "
"any of the extra variables that are created by the project command. "
"Example languages are CXX, C, Fortran. "
"If OPTIONAL is used, use the CMAKE_<languageName>_COMPILER_WORKS "
"variable to check whether the language has been enabled successfully."
"\n"
"This command must be called on file scope (not inside a function) and "
"the language enabled can only be used in the calling project or its "
"subdirectories added by add_subdirectory(). Also note that at present, "
"the OPTIONAL argument does not work.";
"This command must be called in file scope, not in a function call. "
"Furthermore, it must be called in the highest directory common to "
"all targets using the named language directly for compiling sources "
"or indirectly through link dependencies. "
"It is simplest to enable all needed languages in the top-level "
"directory of a project."
"\n"
"The OPTIONAL keyword is a placeholder for future implementation "
"and does not currently work.";
