I am embarrassed that it doesn't work: I thought that the main problem
was that it had poor documentation and a difficult user interface. But I
had not noticed that the project setup and document introduction bits
didn't work anymore since I have not created any projects nor added any
documents for a few years. Mostly I've been analysing a lot of interview
data that I had already added.
And there are a few nice developments in Emacs that could be added to
it, such as the tree-widget facility, and Muse's hyperlinking and
publishing.

Thanks, I'll bear that in mind.

Thank you! It seems to be harder to find time for Emacs programming
since passing the PhD, though.
