+A cookbook for using the cmake mode with emacs
+----------------------------------------------
+
+There is a cmake mode available for emacs. On some systems (the latest 
+Debian unstable for instance) this may be automatically installed along
+with cmake. If not, then the following cookbook should work.
+
+1) Get the cmake-mode.el file from the cmake site
+   http://www.cmake.org/CMakeDocs/cmake-mode.el . Note the current file
+   has a couple of lines from diff / patch in (starting with >>> or <<<) 
+   which need removing.
+
+2) Install cmake-mode.el in a suitable location in your system / home
+   directory. 
+
+3) Add the following to your .emacs file to automatically load cmake
+   mode for .cmake and CMakeLists.txt files.
+
+----
+
+;--------------------
+; Enable CMake mode |
+;--------------------
+(setq load-path (cons (expand-file-name "~/lib/site-lisp") load-path))
+(require 'cmake-mode)
+(setq auto-mode-alist
+      (append '(("CMakeLists\\.txt\\'" . cmake-mode)
+                ("\\.cmake\\'" . cmake-mode))
+              auto-mode-alist))
+
+----
+
+  You will need to alter the directory path depending on where you 
+  installed cmake-mode.el
+
+4) Check the file works by loading one of the plplot cmake files into
+   emacs. 
+
+5) For my version of emacs this does not autoload all the helper 
+   functions. Typing "M-x load-library cmake-mode" should fix this.
+
+   The two most useful functions are 
+   "M-x unscreamify-buffer" which will put all cmake commands into 
+   lower case
+   "M-x indent-region" which will indent the selected region 
+   correctly
+
