Hi guys,

Is there a way to define an agenda filter that will search in only one of
the agenda files? The reason I do that is because although I have several
files added to the agenda, only one contains "actionable items" (gtd.org).

Thanks,

- Marcelo.

There are multiple ways to do this.

 1) visit the file and restrict agenda view to the file with C-u C-c C-x <

 2) set org-agenda-files for some custom-agenda-command just to use this
    one file

1) also restricts search results with C-c C-a / which may not be what
   you want

HTH,
Bernt

Yes, I suggest using this method for file-filtering in agenda views.
Thanks to Bernt for mentioning it.

It would be nice to have more filtering fonctions in agenda views,
but unless someone come up with a good patch, it won't happen soon 
as I cannot work on this right now.

Thanks,

Thanks for the reply, guys.

I already knew about #1, but #2 seems interesting. How could I implement
that?

Cheers,

There are useful examples here:

For the sake of completeness, a third one:

   3) visit the file and do a limited search with `C-c a < s', that is
      inserting `<' after `C-c a' to limit the search for *that* agenda
      command only.

Best regards,
  Seb
