Hobbular is on a distinguished road
Even more basic compiler question

I'm attempting to install Bochs, a UNIX Windows emulator, but when I run ./configure, I get an error message telling me that configure terminated because I do not have an acceptable C compiler in my $PATH. I looked through my /usr/bin and I do not, in fact, have gcc or cc, or anything that looks to be a compiler to my somewhat inexperienced eyes.

I attempted to install the most recent version of GCC, and was again informed that I did not have an acceptable C compiler. How do I remedy this? (Aside from not trying to emulate Windows in the first place...)

You probably need to install the developer tools that came on your OS X installation DVD. You can also download them for free on Apple's web site.
