I tried that... and installed emacs under Cygwin (so it can find emacs to run emacs -batch) and then had to fix permissions on org-install (since it's on a windows drive) before make autoloads worked. I didn't spend any time trying to correct install locations in the makefile. I run org-mode without compiling any sources normally and having to do the extra make step each time I move around the source tree isn't going to be very enjoyable. I have no idea if I need to rerun this make autoloads command on a regular basis or not. I'll continue working on the master branch tomorrow and see what breaks. Thanks, Bernt
