Re: complie error on windows

If you run, "gcc", at the prompt (preferably the one you're trying to
run configure from), do you get something like, "gcc: No input files" or
do you get, "gcc: command not found"? If you get the later (or
something like it), you need to include it in your path, just as it's
telling you to do. If you get the former, something would appear to be
off.
