Cannot build & install according to README #4

Hello, after downloading and extracting the duti-1.5.2.tar.gz Release of this repo I tried to execute ./configure as instructed by the README. Yet my Mac OS X Mavericks reports "no such file or directory: ./configure". Also I tried to execute the install-sh script, but it prompts for arguments which are documented nowhere. The duti-1.5.1.tar.gz on Sourceforge, however, has a executable ./configure , but it says my system version is not supported. How shall I install duti on my Mac OS X Mavericks? Thank you.

Thanks for pointing this out. I typically don't track the configure script in git (too many changes, makes patching difficult), including it only in a downloadable archive. Unfortunately, github stopped supporting downloads, generating the "release" downloads as needed instead. That means the configure script isn't present. I've worked around this by adding the configure script to the release branch. Please download 1.5.2 again and let me know if it works for you.
