Hi,

I'm attempting to install, following the instructions.  
I have Xemacs and am on a Windows XP computer.  

I am not sure what directories to put in the makefile, 
since I don't know which ones refer to the location of
the org files an which refer to the location of the 
Xemacs files.  

Second, I have no idea what to do with the instructions
to 'make' a file.  I know I can't do this at a dos 
prompt. So, how do I install on Windows with Xemacs?  

Thanks for the help.

Jon

Is there really no-one besides me who can answer this question?

Maybe because none of the users use XP.

1. unzip your org-4.73.zip
2. Put the following line in your .emacs:

(add-to-list 'load-path "/pathto/org-4.73")

3. Start emacs to use it.

It requires GNU 'make'¹. However you can still compile .el by using `M-x
byte-compile-file' in Emacs.
