+    build_path> cmake -G Ninja /path/to/portaudio/source
+
+Then you would add `-DPA_BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON` like so:
+
+    build_path> cmake -G Ninja **-DPA_BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON** /path/to/portaudio/source

 @section Building Tests
 
 Unlike some of our other build systems (e.g., autotools), tests are not built automatically. In that case, you can add
