Hi Richard,
Maybe this is some file locking mechanism?
I am quite sure that Org does not create this file explicitly.
Can you try to figure out exactly how things happen in org-publish-get-
base-files-1, and which line exactly is causing the error to be
triggered?

I traced it through with edebug (how do you set a watch on a
variable? I
couldnt get it through my thick skull from the manual).
Anyway, the error occurs in
org-publish-get-base-files-1
and is a result of a broken link :
,----
| lrwxrwxrwx 1 shamrock shamrock 54 2008-10-25 02:03 .#index.org -> [EMAIL PROTECTED]
:1224638771
| [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/webs/mydomain$ cat .#index.org
| cat: .#index.org: No such file or directory
`----
The link is created somewhere in the publish process and is not
properly
constructed if the file has not been saved prior to publish.
Someone more familiar with the process might know immediately where to
fix it, if not I will have a crack next week.
