Some software has a script by name ' configure '.
Then you can do ' ./configure '. Else not.
No configure script : Most often a binary package ?
And doing the 'ls' command suggested by @repo will
show, what you have.
Possible commands and scripts to be run to start building Linux software:
'perl Makefile.PL' , 'perl Build.PL' , 'python setup.py build' ,
# 'python setup.py install', 'cmake ..' , 'scons', './waf', 'jam' ,
'./install', './autogen.sh', './configure' (or 'sh configure'),
libtoolize && aclocal && autoheader && automake --add-missing && autoconf,
.. etc.
