howdy:

 last night i decided to install a few of the billion or so ports that are
on the cd release of freebsd 3.0. i tried to install emacs20, so i entered 

make install emacs20

it started installing, and it went on for a little while, then stopped with
this:

===>Registering installation for emacs-20.3
make: don't know how to make emacs20. Stop

i tried to install a few other editors, and they all ended just like this.
am i correct in assuming that this isn't supposed to happen? just for kicks
i tried to start emacs20 by entering "emacs20," and nothing happened
(command not found).

what now?

thanks
-aaron
