Now I do use both depending on the task and the situation
(sometime you do not have more than a bare terminal)

We are now far from CMake topic but in this case I think you may
open 2 xterms and switch xterms using your favorite keyboard shortcut
(Ctrl-Tab or whatever) this scheme is even usable with Alt+F1/F2/Fi
with "pure console" (linux case).

The terminal switching solution may even be as fast as hitting ":!" keys
for vi command lines access.
