Ok. You *don't* run Makefiles from the shell.
They arent shell scripts.
What you do is type make.
make will pick up the Makefile and build your program then its generally
make install to install it.
Makefiles control the build process so you don't have to guess for
yourself what to build and what to link where.
Try man make at the prompt.
It should build with no problems after you do that right, screen needs to
be installed by root of course because it runs setuid.

Well, I thought of that way before I started the process, but after
trying man make, and just plain make, with several kinds of
capitalzation, I always got errors.
So, I thought I must be too much of a beubi to realize that when they
said make, they really ment makefile, so I tried that!:)
A bit newer than I even knew!:)
