Subject: Agenda TODO sorting by date
Date: Thu, 01 Mar 2012 17:36:53 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87pqcw1x3e.wl%jamshark70@dewdrop-world.net> (raw)

I'm still poking around, trying to figure out how to sort my TODO tag search the way that I want.

Initially I thought org-agenda-sorting-strategy would do it, but only just found the variable's documentation: "Sorting structure for the agenda items of a single day."

Since I want to sort the TODO entries *by day* (across multiple days), obviously this won't do it.

So I still have the question. Given this (omitting tags):


* Audio Class
** Audio session 03
*** TODO Write next week's assignment <2012-03-04>
* Lessons
** Audio 2010
*** TODO Listen and critique <2012-03-03>
** TODO (something else, not time stamped)


How do I get a tags-search (to-do only) like this?


*** TODO Listen and critique <2012-03-03>
*** TODO Write next week's assignment <2012-03-04>
** TODO (something else, not time stamped)


Currently, I get


*** TODO Write next week's assignment <2012-03-04>
*** TODO Listen and critique <2012-03-03>
*** TODO (something else, not time stamped)


because that's the order in which they appear in the file. So I have to scan the whole list to find what's for today, what's for tomorrow etc.

I keep thinking, orgmode can already practically make me a grilled cheese sandwich, so there must be a way to do this. Just can't find it.
