I need help installing!  I am trying to configure and every time I try and 
execute configure it gives me a "bad command or file name", what am I doing 
wrong?

rookie

Since that is a DOS error message, I am going to assume you are using
    windows, DOS, etc.

Instead of trying to build from source, try getting a pre-built
    binary, from http://cygwin.com or http://www.mingw.org

Hi, Try the following:
	./configure
or this:
	bash configure

You need to include the ./ unless the command is in a directory
mentioned in $PATH.

Ahh, the configure script is a Bourne Again SHell (BASH) script for UNIX
systems.  You won't be able to execute it directly.

Try Cygwin (http://www.cygwin.com/) or MingW32 (don't know the address)
both of these will allow you to compile GCC under the Win32 environment.

I am running under the windows environment and I am trying to configure GCC 
prior to building it.  When I run the configure command I get the dos error 
"bad command or file name", and the configure command is in the directory.  
Is there something I need in order for windows to recognize that configure 
is a script.
