I am glad somebody else has brought up this issue as I have a similar requirement. I have recently acquired a Nokia internet tablet (the N800) which is a very small linux computer basically. The point of getting this computer was to run emacs + org-mode and it's working like a charm! In fact, Carsten, you may wish to know that it runs very well indeed even with uncompiled .el files. Very good response in general for agenda activities and note taking, which is what I intend to use this for mostly. However, in the standard software on this computer, there is no (gnu)make equivalent installed. Therefore, I have the same need as Stefan. Is there maybe an elisp script/function that can take the place of the make command used to prepare all the .elc files for org-mode pulled from the git repository? Thanks, eric
