I think the \\' after .org is to match the end of the filename.
From emacs info section Regexp Backslash,
`\''
matches the empty string, but only at the end of the string or
buffer (or its accessible portion) being matched against.

I am using emacs/org mode 6.07b on linux (ubuntu Hardy) and am having
a problem with the font lock mode.
adding -*- mode: org; -*- to the file itself works fine, but simply
loading a test.org file doesn't activate org mode.
I have tried commenting out and back in different options in .emacs,
but none seem to work.
I only have these lines in .emacs at the moment.
; Org -Mode;;
(setq load-path (cons ~/EmacsAddins/Orgmode/lisp load-path))
(setq load-path (cons ~/EmacsAddins/Orgmode/contrib/lisp load-path))
(require 'org-install)
;; The following lines are always needed. Choose your own keys.
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '(\\.org\\' . org-mode))
This line looks wrong. What's the extra \\' for after .org?
I have the following:
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '(\\.\\(org\\|org_archive\\)$ .
org-mode))
so that any files ending in .org or .org_archive trigger org-mode.
