  Yes, I set some agenda files by hand because some live in very
different directories. Some are used only eventually and therefore I
don't have them at each computer; my .emacs is however the same.

  I used a code to check all my agenda files lists in order to remove
the files which don't exist in the current computer.

Hello emacs-orgmode mailing list:

I too would like the ability for org-mode to ignore (silently)
non-existent agenda files. This has been discussed before on the
mailing list [1].

Basically my use case is with Emacs on Windows. I have one Org Agenda
file on removable storage (USB memory), which I want to use from
multiple computers, so sometimes that file is not available. I tried
modifying the org-mode elisp files as shown below. When the
interactive prompt "non-existent file <filename>.. [R]emove from list
or [A]bort?" is shown, I press the "c" key to continue.

---gitk output---
[author/committer is me, but info is redacted]
Parent: 6f3026edf161ae2d721f4ac04ed50fdebb16353d (Release 6.35g)

    Continuing loading when agenda org files do not exist temporarily (press c)

--------------------------------- lisp/org.el ---------------------------------
index c89c5ac..89c5d88 100644
@@ -14896,6 +14896,8 @@ Optional argument FILE means use this file
instead of the current."
        ((equal r ?r)
 	(org-remove-file file)
 	(throw 'nextfile t))
+       ((equal r ?c)
+	(throw 'nextfile t))
        (t (error "Abort"))))))

 (defun org-get-agenda-file-buffer (file)
---gitk output end---

Unfortunately, the above doesn't work correctly. I have to press "c"
multiple times in order to "c"ontinue.

I think the workaround suggested by Carsten Dominik [1], which is to
delete non-existent files from the org-agenda-files variable once,
could work for me if I change it to check the existence of the files
every time. Do you think this can be implemented as an elisp defadvice
on org-agenda<f>? Or is there some better way?

And it has been implemented since then:

(setq org-agenda-skip-unavailable-files t)

The reason why you have to press "c" several times is because you are  
making an agenda with several days, or several blocks.

!Wow!
Looks like it's in the version (6.35g) I am already using. :-/ :-)
And I was going to share my other defadvice that I crafted yesterday. Ha ha.

Thank you very much,
