Here's a 30 sec primer:

Use "MakeRecipe <url_to_tarball.tar.gz>" to make a recipe.  It'll try
guess the name and version from the tarball filename.  If it gets it
wrong use "MakeRecipe <name> <ver> <url_to_tarball>"

In most cases, it'll "just work" and you can follow with a "Compile
<name>".  If you need to tweak the recipe it'll be in
/Files/Compile/LocalRecipes.  In order to add to the configure command
you use the "configure_options" array.  Basically add the following to
the recipe:
configure_options = (
   "--first_option"
   "--second_option"
)
