autoheader and autoconf are GNU utilities which must be installed on your system (they are generally inclduded in most typical installations). Just type the commands as documented and they will generate a configure script which you can then execute with ./configure. If the autoheader/autoconf commands aren't available on your system you can obtain them from gnu.org or surely SUSE has them on their distribution somewhere (they include just about everything under the sun don't they?).
