Hi Adam,
At work I run org-mode from a git repository on Windows XP. I never
compile my org-mode files anymore.
My git repository lives in ~/git/org-mode/ with the .el files in
~/git/org-mode/lisp
I have the following setup in my ~/.emacs
,----[ .emacs ]
| (add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "~/git/org-mode/lisp"))
| (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.\\(org\\|org_archive\\|txt\\)$" .
org-mode))
| (require 'org-install)
`----
Make sure your org-mode files are found first in your load-path so that
you load the version you want and not some other version provided by
Emacs. Your load-path should point to the directory your .el files are
in.
I would just unzip the entire 6.36c zip file without moving anything
from their default locations and point your load-path at the lisp
subdirectory.
GNU Emacs 23.2.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2010-05-08 on G41R2F1
Org-mode version 6.36trans (release_6.36.630.gbca27)
HTH,
Bernt
