This converts the CMake license to a pure 3-clause OSI-approved BSD
License. We drop the previous license clause requiring modified
versions to be plainly marked. We also update the CMake copyright to
cover the full development time range.
This cleans up the 'cmake --build' command-line interface:
- Rename --clean to --clean-first to better describe it.
- Replace --extra-options with a -- separator to simplify passing of
multiple native build tool options.
- Document the options in the main CMake man page description of the
--build option, and shares this with the usage message.
- Require --build to be the first argument when present.
- Move implementation into cmakemain where it belongs.
-generate and install the policy documentation files
-generate and install the docbook files for cmake, ctest, cpack, ccmake (cmake-gui not yet ?)

(http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/), which users can then convert
to other formats.
Tested with meinproc from KDE, which generates HTML pages which look good.
Alex
documentation for all modules found in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH, which currently
has to be specified via -D, this can later on be improved e.g. by reading a
special (to-be-created) file like CMakeFiles/ModulePath.cmake in the build
tree so that running cmake help in the build tree of a project will always
give you the current module path. (This could actually also help IDEs which
would like to support cmake for projects...)
Alex
commands, modules and properties as html, text and man pages.
The names of the man pages are cmcommands, cmcompat, cmprops and cmmodules,
so they are easy to type.
Alex
-in the full documentation there is now an extra section for
compatibility commands, so users see which commands they shouldn't use
-cmake -h <command> now also works with lower case commands
--help-fullm --help-command, --help-module and --help-property now determine
the output format from the extension of the given filename
Let me know if there are some things I overlooked.
