This package, like many new versions of
things that are coming out now, uses a
GNU program called autoconf to check out
your type of UNIX, and learn the best settings
to use to try to compile something.  To build
the package, before typing:

   make

try typing:

   ./configure

This will print lots of interesting statements
about what it finds and doesn't find on your
computer, and then it will CREATE the file "config.h"
which you need.  Then, if you type

   make

hopefully the compiling will work great!

If you are using UNIX for the first time, I
would guess that means you are trying it out,
possibly intending to use it more, and in my
eyes that makes you very much the OPPOSITE
of a moron!
