OK

Right now the CMAKE variable has the folder to build from/to harcoded 
(cmake .). We might have to change that.

Also it seems that it's possible to tell CMake which folder to build to 
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.14/manual/cmake.1.html#generate-a-project-buildsystem

I'll give this a try.  In many case the CMake folder is not in the root 
of the source, this should also help running CMake from the root rather 
than having to "cd" in a specific folder as well.
