Not sure whether this is expected or if I've setup org-mode incorrectly... I've installed a full version of Cygwin on a Windows 8.1 system. I'm, therefore, using Emacs 24.3 but I've added the org-mode 8.2.5h package. After putting (package-initialize) near the beginning of my .emacs and setting up an after-init-hook to require both org-install and org-compat, the proper version shows up in org-version and everything looks okay.
I then pulled down Bernt Hansen's Org-Mode.org file (amazing piece of work!!) and ran C-c C-v C-t on it to "tangle it" (is that the right verb?). The first time I did this, I get an error about "org-with-silent-modifications" being an invalid function (from org-refresh-category-properties). However, immediately doing the C-c C-v C-t again correctly tangles the file and produces the expected Org-Mode.el file. Did I mis-setup org-mode?? -- David Masterson
