# A Suggested Configure Replacement

This script perfectly replaces the `configure` script shipped with various kinds of free software. In fact unlike its ancestor it's at least hilarious to look at.

    ( cd /usr/include; for i in *; do echo -n "checking for $i... "; sleep 1; echo "yes"; done )

`kfx` made a really cool version which will dominate the world eventually:

    ( cd /usr/include; for i in *; do echo -n "checking for $i... "; sleep $(expr index $(date |
        cksum | sed 's/ ..$//') 5); echo "yes"; done )
