Just a tip, i dont know Cygnus, but these questions come over, and over and
over and over and over and over again, check the archives, there is a LOT
about Cygnus, btw unix dont take \ as a directory/file delimiter, you have
to use /, that might be one, or you mught want to run sh and your command
like: sh configure, might work, well my tip to you is check out the
archives, search on Cygnus, and im sure you will get more docs than follows
the sofware itself.

Subject: NEWBIE: configure problems
Unfortunately, trying to run ".\configure" just gives me "configure:
command
not found." I'm also using Win 98, but I tried your "configure | sh" and
"autorun | sh &" fixes and neither worked, I'm sad to say (with "configure:
command not found" and "autorun: command not found," followed by "[1] 1673
[1]+ Done autorun | sh," whatever that means).
If you can by any chance remember what you did to get it to work, I'd be
much obliged. It beats spending $600 for a Microsoft C++ compiler . . .
Thanks again,
Jess Heinig
