We had an entry for "configuration" but not for "configure". I found this Microsoft page:

https://github.com/Microsoft/ICMSE2ETest_zh-CN/blob/master/testdocset/manufacture/mobile/configure-the-start-layout.md

They translate "You can now easily configure the default Start layout ..." as "现在，您可以轻松地配置默认的开始布局...".

I'm not at all sure whether 配置 by itself is an adequate gloss for "configure". Compare:

configuration [kənˌfɪgyəˈreɪʃən] {C} n.c. bùjú 布局; jiégòu 结构

It's interesting that the Microsoft example appears to use "布局" to translate "layout".

Here's an example of "配置选项" appearing to mean "configuration options":

Anyway this is a first draft of an entry for "configure". We also need an entry for "configurable", and perhaps "configuration" should be made into a subentry of "configure", even though I'm not a big fan of subentries. Tangmu (talk)

ABC had 配置 v. dispose (troops/etc.); deploy. I wonder if "configure" should be added to that entry? (as well?) Silas S. Brown (talk) 15:19, 10 April 2017 (UTC)

It looks that way to me, that "configure" should be added to "dispose (troops/etc.); deploy", maybe just at the end with semi-colon. Tangmu (talk)
