Dirk, I appreciate your point. I find that makefiles are elegant concise and powerful. When all fail I just take the time to write a makefile using vpath for source files anywhere.
With other IDEs you are at the mercy of ever changing formats (especially msvc and eclipse) I am not sure how cmake deals with new formats for every IDE version. It is a moving target. No? For no extra charge your are subject to the gui system. I will try your cmake system. My point is that you could leave alone working makefiles for people who choose to use them.
