We haven't added any top-level commands since 2008. At this point there are so many projects with macros and functions out there we probably cannot safely add any new names unless they are long or start with "cmake_". Subcommands are easy though. I tend to think of the top-level commands like "file" and "string" as namespaces. -Brad -- Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cmake-developers
