Transition to cmake on Windows

[xoft]

I'd like to move to CMake on Windows, too. I'm exploring the options of the easiest transition options. I think I might cook up a quick script that would call cmake with the appropriate generator and create the bindings files.

In the meantime, can someone with Windows try the CMake approach manually, to verify that it works for them, too? STR? Tigerw? The basic instructions are: Clone a fresh new repo to a new folder, download and install cmake, make sure it's available system-wide by setting it in the PATH variable, then run "cmake ." in the repo root. CMake should build a solution file at the repo root, open that with VS and try compiling.
