Trying to start doing stuff with C but CMake is very confusing and I can't find anything solid (and easy to read) about setting it up and including depends and what not. We are totally spoiled in Java with tools such as Gradle or Maven.

    I know alot of people like CMake but *everytime* I've tried to use it, it just reinforces how much I dislike it. Never had a nice experience with it.

    @BobbyTables I still can't get GTK in my project. I don't know why it is complaining about libffi, but I can't find any info about that either! Even after installing libffi, no dice. Recommendation was add to path, no dice. Lol.

    I think that EVERY variant of makefiles sucks, no matter what make it is. Horrible syntax and impossible to debug. Most people just copy makefiles from somewhere else and hope it will work. Which is does, mostly, except when it doesn't.

    I'm back to build scripts which I can at least rely on to work, and I see what's going on.
