Running the above command from within the source directory
(sleepyhead-code) I got:

bash: ./configure: No such file or directory

The person I got the instructions from must have done a .configure,
because the instructions listed three packages that needed to be
installed. (I already had all three installed.) I don't know how he ran
the .configure command. It sure doesn't work for me.
