In GNU Emacs 19.25.1 of Thu Jun 30 1994 on eirik (sparc-sun-sunos4.1.2)

Hi,

These are really problems more than bugs - sorry.
 
I got the emacs 19.27 files unpacked on my pc. I got djgpp and sed but
not mv, cp and chmod. 
 
Sugestion 1: Why not give a clue where to find them in the
installation procedure description ?
 
Anyway i tried to make it without these by replacing the missing
programs by corresponding dos commands in configure.bat and the
generated makefile... Seemed to work ok.
 
When trying to compile however, i got a reference to sys/time.h that
did not exist...
 
The instructions said something about when not installing in c:\... I
should change some sed scripts. I did not find out how to do that (is
that the problem ?)
 
???
 
Questions...
 
Where do i get the 'recommended' mv,cp and chmod ?  
 
Is there a ready compiled latest version of emacs out there somewhere?

(The c-mode i'm using complains about some bug in oemacs so i want
  to change to a newer one - and winemacs does not support
  folding-mode.el/ outline-mode, so i don't want to use that one either.) ?
