Simon,
First, you don't need to run configure to build microwindows, just editing
the config file will do the job.
Configure is a GUI front-end to edit the properties in the config file. It is
written in Tk (Wish is the interpreter of Tk) which is part of the Tcl/Tk
language. You can find this package at:
http://dev.scriptics.com/software/tcltk/
Surprising that this package is not included in a linux distro .... :-(
