Synopsis
========

.. parsed-literal::

 cmake3-gui [<options>]
 cmake3-gui [<options>] {<path-to-source> | <path-to-existing-build>}
 cmake3-gui [<options>] -S <path-to-source> -B <path-to-build>

Description
===========

The **cmake3-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.
