Thanks for the prompt reply Roger,

I tried the CMake approach but it quits after generating just the first 
part of the vcxproj file (the message I see is "Error in configuration 
process, project files may be invalid")

So I tried your 2nd approach (typing it into a Visual Studio Command 
Prompt) but that came up as an unrecognized command.  I do seem to have 
a DLL called vcpkg.dll - so do I need to run that command from somewhere 
else (e.g. from within the Visual Studio IDE somehow?)
