Copying your last response in from the other thread:

I don't understand. This is the default Worg command. I posted that
this was failing, and you wrote:

I asked for clarification and you suggested using:

This is what I did above when I posted:
#+begin_src cmd
emacs -batch -Q -L C:\path\to\org.git lisp -l ../mk/org-fixup.el -f
org-make-autoloads-compile
#+end_src

I tried to add a direct path via -L.

I think my issue with this is twofold:
- the ".." in the command `emacs [snip] ../mk/org-fixup.el` seemed to
imply that I needed to be in the mk directory

- There's also this:
#+begin_quote Worg (http://orgmode.org/worg/org-hacks.html)
When you execute the commands below, your current directory must be
where org has been unpacked into,
in other words the file default.mk should be found in your current directory.
#+end_src

If default.mk is in my current directory, I'm in mk, not org.git.

If I run the command from org.git, things *do* appear to work. Perhaps
this has all been a result of not understanding Worg or Worg being
incorrect:

**Does one need to be in the top level org git dir or in the dir in
which default.mk resides (these are not the same)?**


Thanks for the persistence,
John
