Well I ran ./configure but I got an error "configure: error: QT plugins not found!"

make WINDOWS_BUNDLE gives the same error.

So I guess Kurt said "... it won't work anyway because TmBuildEnv is 'outdated' once more."

Anyone know how to fix this?

"./configure" means... well, the "./" part is just saying to take the executable here,  in the present directory,  rather than from the PATH. For various reasons related to security we don't normally put "./" in PATH. The "configure" script tests the compilation environment and sets up config.h, and creates "Makefile" from "Makefile.in" so that after that you can run "make" to compile the program.

So at a command prompt in the terminal,  type the command and press enter to execute it. The % represents the command shell prompt. The help switch will cause it to display options you can add to the configure command if needed.  Defaults are often fine.

% ./configure --help
% ./configure
% make WINDOWS_BUNDLE

I am trying to compile TeXmacs for the first time under windows. I am following the instructions found at http://www.texmacs.org/tmweb/download/winqt.en.html. 

I successfully got the source downloaded.  Next is says to "configure your environment" using ./configure, but I am not sure what if anythings needs to be configured.  

When in run make WINDOWS_BUNDLE is comes back:

$ make WINDOWS_BUNDLE

make: *** No rule to make target `WINDOWS_BUNDLE'.  Stop.
