Hi,
On the page
https://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.html#keeping-current-with-Org-mode-development
after one has compiled and installed, Point 4 says
This is where you configure Org-mode with Emacs. Please refer to Org
tutorials.
I had to fiddle around a bit to get a minimal init.el that allowed me to
test a fix made in the Savannah repo. Specifically rather than
(let ((default-directory "~/.emacs.d/lisp/"))
(normal-top-level-add-subdirs-to-load-path))
I needed to do
(let ((default-directory "~/.emacs.d/lisp/"))
(setq load-path
(append
(let ((load-path (copy-sequence load-path))) ;; Shadow
(normal-top-level-add-subdirs-to-load-path))
load-path)))
to get the path for the version of Org I wanted to test at the front of
the load path (examples taken from
https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/LoadPath).
Would it be worth expanding Point 4 to something like
This is where you configure Org-mode with Emacs. Please refer to Org
tutorials. To test a locally installed version the following minimal
init.el will suffice:
(let ((default-directory "~/elisp/"))
(setq load-path
(append
(let ((load-path (copy-sequence load-path))) ;; Shadow
(normal-top-level-add-subdirs-to-load-path))
load-path)))
Replace '~/elisp/' with the path in which you installed Org-mode.
?
Cheers,
Loris
