Making a program question

Usually most of my experiences show that it would be ./configure.  The
tab autocomplete is a good idea to verify this.  Also be sure the
permisions are set right with x turned on.  Again from experience, all
source tarballs I've dealt with, I could merely type ./configure to get
things rolling.  I first always do a 'ls' command to list all the files
and read any README or INSTALL files to be sure I'm doing the right
thing and set up any manual stuff first.  That usually does it for me.
