[Cmake] Line length in dsps

[Bill Hoffman]

When does this happen?

Your patch was this stuff:

CM_MULTILINE_DEBUG_LIBRARIES
CM_MULTILINE_LIBRARIES

And, it is still there.   I almost removed it, because if you use the multi-line format
for dsp files, they can not be converted by the new .NET stuff, but I left it in there.


For example, from a vtk executable dsp file:

# ADD LINK32 /LIBPATH:"C:/Hoffman/vtknew-vc/bin/$(INTDIR)"  /LIBPATH:"C:/Hoffma
/vtknew-vc/bin/"
# ADD LINK32 /LIBPATH:"C:/Hoffman/vtknew-vc/bin/$(INTDIR)"  /LIBPATH:"C:/Hoffma
/vtknew-vc/bin/"
# ADD LINK32 vtkCommon.lib
# ADD LINK32 vtkFiltering.lib
# ADD LINK32 vtkGraphics.lib
# ADD LINK32 vtkRendering.lib
# ADD LINK32 opengl32.lib
# ADD LINK32 vtkImaging.lib
# ADD LINK32 vtkGraphics.lib
# ADD LINK32 vtkIO.lib
# ADD LINK32 vtkFiltering.lib
# ADD LINK32 vtkCommon.lib
# ADD LINK32 vtkpng.lib
# ADD LINK32 vtkzlib.lib
# ADD LINK32 vtkjpeg.lib
# ADD LINK32 /STACK:10000000
