Right, much better to spend time on something else, and use Lua for all 
these things.
Add wxLua , and  the graphical interface becomes easy too. CMakeSetup is 
nice, but i can't organize options the way i want.

So would it be possible to make some hybrid kind of Cmake, which makes 
it possible to slowly migrate.
Or how do you think about using existing modules in Cmake syntax. Maybe 
calling Cmake macros  from a Lua script?
How exactly did you wrap in Lua what is there now? Can you mix, or is it 
just a change or two, and Cmake becomes a lua script?
I think to give this a chance, there need to be both at the same time, 
and slowly migrate modules and projects.

Just curious, and like Lua much that i use it as scripting language in 
my own project, using Cmake to generate the binding and to build it :-)
