Generally you run a program by typing in the name of the executable file for that program. If the program is not in the path, then you need to type the full path name, or the relative path name (e.g. ./configure). If the program is not executable, then you can make it executable with chmod +x (but do you really want that program to run). Script files can be run with the appropriate interpreter (e.g. sh configure)
