NAME

       cmake-gui - CMake GUI Command-Line Reference

SYNOPSIS

          cmake-gui [<options>]
          cmake-gui [<options>] {<path-to-source> | <path-to-existing-build>}

DESCRIPTION

       The  cmake-gui  executable  is  the  CMake  GUI.   Project  configuration  settings may be
       specified interactively.  Brief instructions are provided at the bottom of the window when
       the program is running.

       CMake  is  a  cross-platform build system generator.  Projects specify their build process
       with platform-independent CMake listfiles included in each directory of a source tree with
       the  name CMakeLists.txt.  Users build a project by using CMake to generate a build system
       for a native tool on their platform.

OPTIONS

       -S <path-to-source>
              Path to root directory of the CMake project to build.

       -B <path-to-build>
              Path to directory which CMake will use as the root of build directory.

              If the directory doesn't already exist CMake will make it.
