Then you should not need to use the autoconf/configure
script, which was created to support building software on
multiple platforms (different operating systems), where
there is a need to use platform-specific tools.

If you think that you still might need to use those tools,
you might want to read the "Introduction" chapters of the
following manuals:

   (info "(autoconf) Top")
and
   (info "(automake) Top")
