Hi. So, I have installed emacs on my windows 11 box which I am just
setting up. I do have emacs on it -- installed via chocolatey and now
I am trying to get emacspeak to work.

I did a git clone to the windows box and I have the emacspeak folder.

Now when I try to do the make config, I get the following output:

make : process_begin: CreateProcess(NULL, chmod 755 *.pl, ...) failed.
At line:1 char:1
+ make config 2>&1 >temp.txt
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (process_begin: ...l, ...)
failed.:String) [], RemoteException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : NativeCommandError

make (e=2): The system cannot find the file specified.
make[1]: *** [Makefile:51: config] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:82: config] Error 2

Now, this seems to come from the Makefile in the etc directory, if I
comment this out, however emacspeak does not compile properly.

So, how to get this to work -- I want to use the sharpwin for my tts
as well.
