Instead of opening a new shell, you can just try "sh ./configure". If that is not working, then your .configure file is corrupt one way or the other. Did you, by any chance, transfer this file from a windows box to your linux box (I am pointing at the Newline incompatibility between the tow OSs). What are the first few lines of your .configure?

Before you configure try to change to the csh shell by typing in either csh or tsch at the prompt, then try to run ./configure (csh should be a symlink to tsch, so it doesn't matter which)

Jeric,
No joy. See below:
bronxville:/home/lms/Documents/Downloads/quanta-3.0 # tsch bash: tsch: command not found bronxville:/home/lms/Documents/Downloads/quanta-3.0 # csh bronxville Downloads/quanta-3.0# ./configure ./configure: Permission denied. bronxville Downloads/quanta-3.0#
Something else to try?
Thanks! Mark
