Then how would I rewrite:
install_files( ${some_install_dir} .*\\.png )
?
It uses regexps but docs of INSTALL command are quiet about using 
regexps... :).

I tried 

install( FILES .*\\.png DESTINATION ${some_install_dir} )

but it gave me this error:
CMake Error: Invalid escape sequence \.
CMake Error: Syntax error in cmake code at
/home/kde-devel/KDE-SVN/build/kdegames/libkdegames/carddecks/cards-aisleriot/cmake_install.cmake:20:

need administrative privileges.

When using old install_files all works OK.

Any ideas?
Thanks!
Dmitry.
