Installation of fontconvert_win - problem

Hi, all nice people.

I must admit I am a Windows guy, not much Linux experience.

But even such people can have need to print fonts on LED-matrices.

So according to https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-GFX-Library/blob/master/fontconvert/fontconvert_win.md I have:

Installed the MinGW in C:\MinGW folder

Installed FreeType library freetype-2.10.1.tar.gz in C:\ft10

Installed MSYS in C:\MinGW\MSYS

Successfully started msys.bat from C:\MinGW\msys\1.0

and

cd /c

cd ft10

but after typing

./configure --prefix=/mingw

I receive:

sh: ./configure: No such file or directory

this happens even if I type:

./configure --prefix=/MinGW

I can find a file C:\ft10\freetype-2.10.1\_configure

but trying to

freetype-2.10.1/_configure --prefix=/mingw

or

cd freetype-2.10.1

_configure --prefix=/mingw

does not do the trick.

So can someone help me?

Am I really the first one to run into this problem?

Please, do not answer with the RTFM. I have done my readings, but they did not lead to success.

Thanks

Tony.
