autoconf is the file acnf*b.zip. 

You're looking for configure (not configure.exe) and it should be
sitting right there after you've unzipped the source. Perhaps it'll be
created by autoconf.

: I don't have them after downloading and installation of DJGPP :-(

That's because you didn't download _every_ package. And usually you
wouldn't do that. And configure will be different for each package.

: Can anyone give a link where I can download all necessary packages?

E. g. <ftp://ftp.sunet.se/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/>. But there are
lot of other mirrors too.


Right,
