Configure, Make, and Make Install
I need some Help with this, I'm trying to install Recordmydesktop via tar. Im not sure whats going on but I'm having trouble executing the command make and make install. This is what i have gotten

Code:
ONEs-MacBook-Air:recordmydesktop-0.3.8.1 1negroup$ sudo make
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
ONEs-MacBook-Air:recordmydesktop-0.3.8.1 1negroup$ sudo make install
make: Nothing to be done for `install'.
ONEs-MacBook-Air:recordmydesktop-0.3.8.1 1negroup$ sudo makefile
Password:
sudo: makefile: command not found
ONEs-MacBook-Air:recordmydesktop-0.3.8.1 1negroup$

Here is everything else. Just to let you know I executed ./configure first

NAME

       away - terminal locking program

SYNOPSIS

       away [OPTIONS] message [...]

DESCRIPTION

       away  is a simple program that locks your terminal, checks for new mail in any given number of mailboxes, and lets other users know why you
       are inactive.

OPTIONS

       -c, --mail
	      Enable checking of mail.

       -C, --nomail
	      Disable checking of mail.

       -f, --rcfile=FILE
	      Specify an alternative configuration file instead of the default ~/.awayrc file.

       -F, --norcfile
	      Ignore user configuration file.

       -h, --help
	      Display help.

       -m, --message
	      Execute as the remainder of the command line, effectively stripping off the executable name and additional switches.

       -p, --persist
	      Continue checking for new mail as long as there is at least one mailbox that has not received new mail.

       -P, --nopersist
	      Stop checking mail if any mailbox is found to have new mail.

       -t, --time=SECONDS
	      Set the number of second that away sleeps before performing its background tasks.  Presently, the only  background  task	that  away
	      will perform is the checking of mailboxes.

       -T, --notime
	      Ignore any options to set the time interval and use the default number of seconds.

       -v, --version
	      Display version information.

FILES

       ~/.awayrc
	      Per user configuration file. See awayrc(5) for further details.

       /etc/pam.d/away
	      The Linux-PAM configuration file.

BUGS

       Bug reports should be sent to the away mailing list <away@unbeatenpath.net>.
