-Obsolete Variables
+Internal Variables
 ==================

+CMake has many internal variables.  Most of them are undocumented.
+Some of them, however, were at some point described as normal
+variables, and therefore may be encountered in legacy code. They
+are subject to change, and not recommended for use in project code.
