Some attempt at starting an external command is failing because it
can't find the external program to run.  It may be the tlgd program
(there needs to be a file in the cgreek-emacs20/tlg directory (or
wherever you have tlg2emacs, etc.) called 'tlgd'.  Check the value
of the variable tlg-tlgd-program and see if the file indicated
actually exists.  

It's also possible that this error is coming from an attempt to start
tlg2emacs, tlgcites2emacs, tlgidt2emacs, or authtab2emacs.  In fact,
I made another stupid mistake in the Makefile I circulated: I
mistypted the name of the authtab converter (it should have been
compiled as authtab2emacs, but I left off "2emacs"). If you've already
been using it, authtab2emacs should already have been there, and I
haven't changed it in  months.  However, here is a corrected
Makefile (sorry about all these typos: I need to s low down):

---BEGIN Makefile------------
