<span class="Apple-style-span" style="white-space: pre-wrap; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; ">I am running cmake 2.6.3 on vista32
1. Is there any way to add a path for cmake to permanently look for modules/packages in? I am writing a package, which I have in SVN, and I really don't want to copy it back and forth to the cmake folder or I will get out of whack. And when I set the CMAKE_MODULE_PATH path in the CMakeLists.txt file, it (sometimes) works but this is a pain to do for every single project that uses my package.
2. When I do set the CMAKE_MODULE_PATH, I am having strange parsing errors when expanding environment variables.</span><br><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="white-space: pre-wrap; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px;">I have the following environment variables set in vista:</span></div>
