Re: [O] just made orgmode-7.8.02

Then perhaps something more is wrong.  I downloaded orgmode-7.8.02 and 
installed that after having run the standard gitclone command to clone 
org-mode on this system.  I did that because the gitclone process pulled 
version 5.23 for me and also created my git repository for me in that 
process.  I don't know how or why that happened but it was a satellite 
connection yesterday and not my usual cable connection.On Thu, 29 Dec
