HELP!!!!

I have compiled the latest version of epoch that I could find V4.0b2 or something
like that. I have read loads about how to get nice pretty buttons on the screen
to do stuff and I downloaded files that promised Xview style menus and all sorts
of stuff but have been unable to get anything to work and I am now completely
confused.

I am not an emacs expert which doesn't help but i am learning gradually. Could
someone please point me in the right direction as to how to get a simple X menu
up or anything!?! 

So far I can see no real difference between epoch and emacs which doesn't seem
right so I might have messed up the installation, but not knowing what its
supposed to look like I don't know whether its right or wot.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Apologies if this is the wrong newsgroup but this is the only one I have access
to.

I am using a sun4 with X11R5. We also have X11R4 and OpenWindows.
