The docstring for org-agenda-todo-ignore-deadlines seems to suggest otherwise. Is this documentation inaccurate? ,---- | Documentation: | Non-nil means don't show near deadline entries in the global todo list. | Near means closer than `org-deadline-warning-days' days. | The idea behind this is that such items will appear in the agenda anyway. | See also `org-agenda-todo-ignore-with-date'. | See also the variable `org-agenda-tags-todo-honor-ignore-options'. `---- Best, Matt
