[Cmake] CMakeLists.txt

[Don Burns]

Thanks for the help, I'm over the initiation hump.  

The route I took was to begin with the binary distribution rather than the 
source code, then follow the documentation you point me to, Bill.  The 
binary distribution, unfortunately, does not come with any example 
CMakeLists.txt files, nor are the mentioned by the documentation.  A 
friendly suggestion might be to include the Example directory in the 
binary distribution and mention it in the documentation.

Thanks!
