[Cmake] gui -vs- command line problems (WIN32)

[Bill Hoffman]

You have to specify the -G option to specify the generator.
The GUI has a pull down and defaults to visual studio 6 or 7.
The command line defaults to "NMake Makefiles"
To see available generators, run this command:
cmake --help

It should be something like this:
[-GgeneratorName] (where generator name can be one of these: "Visual Studio 6" "Visual Studio 7" "Borland Makefiles" "NMake Makefiles" )
