1.

It looks like "priority" means both priority = /letter/ and
priority /as calculated/. =

This is correct, and indeed not = clearly distinguished
in the manual.  Calculated means, = there are additions to
the priority depending on how close an = entry is to its deadline
or scheduled = date.

I got confused by this at = first
when I wanted to sort using priority-down to mean sorting = by
letter.

Is there a way to sort by priority-letter-down in = the
agenda?

Not currently, = no.


This might create an = order that is more stable over time,
thus allowing you to know where = to look for an item.

2.

Is it possible to allow a = user-definable sorting strategy
member for the agenda?  i.e. = user-definable-down.

It is = now, I just pushed this change.

Search for the = variabel org-agenda-cmp-user-defined, and then
use = user-defined-up and user-defined-down in your sorting = strategy.

- = Carsten



-- =
Myalgic encephalomyelitis denialism is causing death (decades = early;
Jason et al. 2006) and severe suffering (worse than nearly all = other
diseases studied; e.g. Schweitzer et al. 1995) and grossly = corrupting
