I've got a few top-level user commands, related to org, that load at
startup. Specifically org-agenda and org-ido-switchb are bound to keys
that are available after emacs starts up. Before Org loads properly,
however, things like the agenda file list and the list of valid tags and
TODO keywords are unavailable. That makes it hard to boot emacs and go
directly into a call to `org-todo-list': the TODO keywords aren't loaded
yet.
I've looked into this before but couldn't find a single function that
would "boot" my local data. `org-agenda-files' reads the file list, but
it doesn't actually parse the files and do all the setup routines.
Is there a single-function entry point that I could put in my init
files, that would get me where I want to be? ie, in a state as though
`org-agenda' had already been called, though it hasn't yet?
Thanks,
Eric

I call `org-agenda-list' in my `after-init-hook' but it is not "silent",
that is, it displays the agenda list.

Right, just calling the agenda directly will certainly solve the issue,
and I suppose as a member of the Org faithful I should be booting to the
agenda! But it would be nice to get the same effect, but be left in
*scratch*...

Maybe hacking around it with something like the following in
'org-agenda-after-show-hook' or some similar hook?
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun my-switch-to-sratch ()
(switch-to-buffer "*scratch*")
(delete-other-windows))
#+end_src
HTH,

I forgot to remove this function again, so it is only run the first time
the agenda is shown.

Yup, that's worth considering. I guess I was just hoping to get at the
"plumbing" a little more directly. But yes, on balance this is probably
a better approach.
Thanks,
