  To: Org Mode


These days I find myself frequently searching a mountainous pile of org
files. To clarify my own understanding of Org-mode's powerful search
tools, I wrote a tutorial on "advanced searches". It's available on
Worg:

http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/advanced-searching.php

I hope the tutorial proves useful. If nothing else, I'd like to bring
some attention of one of Org-mode's hidden gems: C-c a s
(org-search-view).

Since Worg is in perpetual beta, any suggestions or comments would, of
course, be greatly appreciated!

Best,
Matt

  Excellent.  Thorough.
  
  I'd point out that "..." will not match if there are newlines in the
  matched text (though perhaps it should, if possible, a la google).

  You might want to consider scheduling the big event for next year, not
  past January.

  Indeed.  Even a simple use of C-c a s on my notes file has saved me
  countless times.
  
  Thanks for the impressive writeup.

  Fantastic document!  Many thanks.  Although I use a few of the
  techniques you illustrate, I had no idea of how many different ways of
  searching there are.
