MUCH MUCH more information is needed. first, what OS? second, what application are you trying to compile? third, what are the exact errors you are recieving?
forth and actually most important, have you searched on the applications website for some type of trouble shooting tips? you are probably missing some required libraries.

I am using OS X,under Unix Darwin. I am compiling with Terminal. I use Bash.
One of the errors is "make: *** No rule to make target `Makefile.in', needed by `Makefile'. Stop." and another is "configure: error: *** SDL version 1.1.1 not found!". I try to install SDL, but it says, "-bash: ./configure: No such file or directory" when I configure it.

did you download and install SDL? when ./configure is not succesful, you cant run make because the files that would have been created by configure, havent.

I downloaded SDL and tried to configure and install it. It came up with a "could not find directory" error. I try to install things that do not need SDL (like some desktop environments) and THEY come up with errors. They say "could not find directory" also. Don't make me lose hope in Unix

so you downloaded it, from where? what file did you actually download? was it a file that ended in .tar.gz? perhaps you didnt un compress or unpack the archive you downloaded.

I downloaded it from Sourceforge.net. It ended in .tar.gz. It decompressed all of the files that I need (by using Stuffit Expander, if that helps?). The exact name of the file is war-0.0.1bb.tar.gz. The URL I got it off of is http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...p?group_id=960 . Do I need to download it through Fink?
