misc/mc is midnight commander -- I'm not running 4.1, so I cannot with 
certainty it's available to you, but I would presume so.

	pkg_add -r mc

should work.

Second,  'wheel' -- its a security feature.  check out the FAQs under 
'system administration'.  (on the freebsd homepage)  To add a user to 
the group, the easiest way is to simply edit '/etc/group' directly:

From:
	wheel:*:0:root
To:
	wheel:*:0:root,emon

(or whatever your user name is)   The change will take effect next time 
you log in as 'emon'

Lastly, when posting to this list, send the email to 
freebsd-newbies at freebsd.org -- otherwise, the list doesn't see it!
