Hi,
Many many thanks in advance. I'm about to lose it over this (presumably) simple problem.
I'm a dedicated Matlab user transitioning to C to decrease runtime of my code. I'd like to use the GNU library GSL
http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/
because it provides so many nice functions. Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to build it on my Windows 7 x64 box using Pelles C. The directions from the readme are:
******
To compile GSL you will need an ANSI C-compiler. After unpacking the distribution the Makefiles can be prepared using the configure command,
./configure
You can then build the library by typing,
make
*******
Sounds easy enough, but when I try "./configure" or "/configure" or "configure" in my Pelles C command prompt, I get the following error:
" " is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program, or batch file. I have tried this from both the Pelles C directory, and the directory where I have unpacked the GSL files.
Thanks!
Ned ???

This sounds like instructions for Linux users, you need the package for Windows.
Best would be to get the Windows binaries.
yes. Thanks. GSL was recommended to me by a Linux user. Sigh. It doesn't appear that GSL is available to me without Cygwin...
At least I can stop banging my head on the keyboard. Thanks again.
