I've had trouble with the websites i've looked at to install emacs (ie they
didn't work) so i was hoping you could give me steps to install it on
windows xp (!)

Simple grasshopper,
either using an FTP client or your favorite browser go to
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/windows/emacs-21.3-fullbin-i386.tar.gz
then use WinZIP (or other tools at your descretion) unzip first the GZ
then the TAR files. I recommend unzipping the contents of the TAR file
into a directory C:\BIN. With WinZIP you MUST use folder names. If
you don't there will be a completely horrendous jumble of files and it
probably won't work anyway.
By Unzipping into C:\BIN there will be C:\BIN\emacs-21.3 directory
created. Once it is created, you can, though you do not have to, go to
the ...\emacs-21.3\bin directory and execute the addpm.exe program
which will add a few completely useful and innocuous entries into your
Windows Registry. It will, for example, create the icons for you.
Thereafter click and edit.
Nelson ...
(when you can snatch the pebble from the editor it will be time for you
to leave.)
