Something like this:

(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
      (quote (( "x" "Test Agenda" agenda "" 
		((org-agenda-start-with-follow-mode t)
		 (org-agenda-span 'day)
		 (org-agenda-start-with-log-mode t))))))

but it doesn't handle the grid - I have that on by default by setting 

(setq org-agenda-time-grid (quote ((daily today remove-match)
				   #("----------------" 0 16 (org-heading t))
				   (830 1000 1200 1300 1500 1700))))

which you can probably add to the above agenda definition but I didn't
bother.  If there are no items to display on the agenda there is a bug
where the grid is not shown but otherwise I think this works.

Regards,
Bernt
