[CMake] Is there a DocBook file anymore

That is an idea. I'll take a look. 

Thanks

The process that I have used in the past to populate the "command completion" is to parse the DocBook file because it was reasonably well laid out and the XML nature of the file made it easy to pick out the parts that I needed. It would seem that with the latest version of CMake that file is gone. Is there another mechanism that I would have the same information?
