[Cmake] STREQUAL and FILE command

[Andy Cedilnik]

Hi All,

There was a problem when I was writing the FILE command about what to do
with the last line of text. Should there be a new line or not. For
example, what if I say:

FILE(READ file1 var)
FILE(WRITE file2 ${var})

Should there be a new line in the last row of var? 

Anyway, I do agree with FILE(WRITE command to not put new line there,
and I fixed the cmake.

So, any thought of FILE(READ?
