You first have to change into the directory where the `configure' script lies. You can do this with cd /c/auctex Then you can call configure with ./configure ... Also, you should orient yourself on the examples shown in the file INSTALL.windows. That means, use --with-prefix instead of --with-emacs, use --with-texmf-dir instead of --with-textmf-dir, and don't quote blanks in path names if you use single quotes. If you think all this is too tedious, you could try your luck with a pre-compiled version of a CVS Emacs including AUCTeX available at <URL:ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/auctex/>. But note that this is still experimental. -- Ralf _______________________________________________ auctex-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/auctex-devel
