I'm a beginner on windows and I'm prepared to learn slowly and steadily, but I'm having trouble getting started. I have GNU Emacs 23.2.1 and I'd like to get the latest version of orgmode (my version has no org-capture). I see from http://orgmode.org/worg/org-hacks.php#compiling-org-without-make that this problem has been addressed, but I'm still not clear on what to do...
1. How I find out which version of orgmode I have? I'm assuming from http://orgmode.org/ that it's 6.21b, but is there a way of confirming this?
2. Do I need to compile at all? At least in order to get started learning and using it?
3. Whether or not I compile, how do I "install" the downloaded org-mode files? Should I just copy them into \emacs-23.2\lisp\org (where my org lisp files are now) and let them overwrite where necessary?
3. In the example path in the function on http://orgmode.org/worg/org-hacks.php#compiling-org-without-make, the org-lisp-directory is under .emacs.d but my org files are under \emacs-23.2\lisp\org - does this matter?
4. Assuming the path is ok as it is, how do I enter the path into the function - do I write the whole path - e.g. Q:\progs\emacs-23.2\lisp\org ?
5. What option should I choose for org-compile-sources in the function? (I don't know what it means.)
6. Finally, how do I use this function? Do I write it to my .emacs and then call it? What is the command?
Sorry for all the questions. I hope I've been clear.
