Some of the .dir-locals.el files in the distribution are symbolic links to another. On cygwin they come out as LNK files. Emacs tries to load such LNK file and fails. I had to remove these files to be able to edit orgmode elisp files.
Perhaps there is a way to make emacs on cygwin interpret LNK as links, then it should be mentioned in the installation instructions. Otherwise (and I think better), the build process could copy .dir-locals.el from the master dir to the slave dirs _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
