Actually, you don't. The `configure' script won't run on MSDOS. You
might try using the port of `bash', but I'd guess that you will need to
modify the script at least a bit before it will run. The DJGPP port of
`bash' is available as v2gnu/bsh1147b.zip from the same place you get
DJGPP. You will probably need most of the utilities from the v2gnu
directory to run the script. Get at least Fileutils, Textutils, Sh-utils,
Sed, Grep, and Diffutils. You will also need Make 3.75.
There's also a Cygnus Win32 port of `bash', but I'd guess it won't work
good enough with DJGPP tools (although I didn't try). A pointer to the
Cygnus site is in the DJGPP FAQ list (section 3.3).
