Take a look at the bakery: http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/view/ckeditor-3-x-new-fckeditor-version
Since CKeditor is a js library you can just add it to app/webroot/js and all the right magic will happen when you include it and attach it to a textarea. In regards to routing issues for third party software you can get around that in a few ways. Number one, you can drop it into your webroot folder and then you can navigate to it directly (ie drop phplist into app/webroot/phplist, then navigate to http://yoursite.com/phplist/. Number two, you can drop it in your vendors directory and then import it from within your app somewhere -- App::import('Vendor', 'path/to/ file'); The latter is really for independent php classes that have some utility you need/want that isn't dependent on cakephp. Some examples could be a class to resize an image, paypal's direct payment php class, etc.. etc..
