Dear debmint,

To compile, package, either git clone thie project or untar the package file and cd into the top directory. Execute the command ./configure to set up for building under your particular system.

Seems like your project is configured for autoconf or automake, as simple:
./configure do not work.

Autoconf and Automake throw errors.
Please advice, how to set up your project for testing it.

Sorry for the delay. Had not checked in for a while.

On what platform are you running, and what versions of autoconf,, automake, etc are you using? I just configured a fresh clone and it succeeded with only a warning that
"The macro `AC_HEADER_STDC' is obsolete"

Instead of running "autoconf", I usually prefer to use "autoreconf". Additionally, you need to include the "-i" option, which will add any standard files that are not already there.

I did this under Manjaro Linux (Arch),
autoconf --version
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.71

automake --version
automake (GNU automake) 1.16.5

configure.ac specifies a minimum for autoconf of 2.59

Not sure if the current version of this package will still build on Windows. It did work under mingw, but I never tried it with CygWin and don't know if anyone ever did.

If you are still monitoring this, let me know more about your setup and I'll try to get it working for you.

I noticed you did a simple "./configure" command. After seeing your issue on osk-disasm, i find you tried it with ubuntu. I don't know if you caught it or not, but if you include the option"--with-g09dis", it will build a GTK front-end that might make it easier to use, although the command-line is not all that difficult once you get the hang of it. I hope the documentation I provided is sufficient.
