“During my ‘Introduction to Apache Server’ talk at ApacheCon, I
talked about configuring your Apache compilation using the
configure
script. During the break, someone asked why
I was talking about using configure
, but did not
mention using Configure
.”
“That’s configure
with a lower case c
,
and Configure
with an upper case C
, in
case you missed the distinction.”
“Well, I suppose there’s really no particular reason that I talk
about one over the other. Except that configure
seems
to be a little easier to explain to beginners.”
“So, in this article, I’ll talk about using
Configure
— why you might want to, some of its
advantages, and how to use it to make your life easier.”
