importing fonts

[Joe Villari]

How did you get fondu installed and working?

Using the source code:

[root@localhost fondu]# configure
bash: configure: command not found

[root@localhost fondu]# ls
config.guess  fondu.c                     Makefile.in    tobin.1
config.sub    fondu.sourceforge.net.html  Makefile.Mac   tomacbinary.c
configure     frombin.1                   Makefile.unix  ufond.1
configure.in  frommacbinary.c             README         ufondbdf.c
crctab.c      install-sh                  readnfnt.c     ufond.c
dfont2res.1   LICENSE                     res2data.c     ufond.h
dfont2res.c   MacFiles.h                  showfond.1     ufondpfb.c
fondu.1       macfonts.h

Using rpm -i I didnot receive any errors:

[root@localhost joev]# rpm -i fondu-030428-1.src.rpm
[root@localhost joev]#

Now I get:

[root@localhost joev]# fondu
bash: fondu: command not found

Any Ideas?

Thanks
