CMake Basics

The KUSP project changed from a long history of using autotools to using CMake.

Why?

• Auto tools were a pain and hated tr
• Came to the point were we needed to do something how to do it under automake
• Noah had encountered cmake – said it was super cool
• Autotools is arcane, wierd, and old.
• Other projects like KDE use CMake, which is a testimonial to its success.
