Hello,
I would like to have a solution for the following problem: I browse
TODOs in my agenda view and I would like to postpone them, so agenda
buffers don't list them until a certain date.
I would like to quickly (by using shortcuts) postpone a todo entry from
the agenda buffer by:
- 1-2-3 day
- coming monday/friday
- next monday/friday
What is possible with current org mode?
Thanks, Richard

I don't think so, and i'm not sure on how it could be implemented.
Maybe a :WarningAtDay: property? Conceptually this requires that we're
able to distinguish between postponing the date a todo is displayed on
and postponing the todo itself (the day it's supposed to be done)...
All this might be a bit confusing.
If you need this for only a few todos, you might assign a DEADLINE to
them, then set `org-deadline-warning-days' so that they pop up in the
agenda view at the desired date.

Trying to think further, i stumbled on this idea: what about having
something like an _AGENDA suffix for properties that would make the
agenda decide whether it should get the entry or not?
For example, here is a todo:
,----
| * Try to avoid stupid examples
| :PROPERTIES:
| :WarningAtDay_AGENDA: <2007-11-11 dim>
| :END:
`----
When getting entries for the agenda display, Org might an entry with
such a _AGENDA property. Then Org's job would be to check whether this
entry has to be included in the results or not. For doing so, it will
have to call a user-defined function like :
,----
| (defun org-agenda-get-entry:WarningAtDay (param)
| ...
| [Returns t or nil depending on param]
| ...)
`----
If the function returns t (e.g. if the function above says that today is
later than the value of WarningAtDay_AGENDA), then the todo is included.
This way each user could (easily) define its own rules for deciding what
entries should appear in the agenda display.
But enough speculation for tonight :)

I just tend to use the todo list, but I would guess that you might be
able to use SCHEDULED for the day you want the item to appear and then
maybe write a few special functions/bindings to set SCHEDULE to today
+ 1..3 or the next monday or friday.

At the moment, all uncompleted todo entries appear in my agenda views,
regardless of scheduling. Is there something I could use as query
string to filter the list based on scheduling, like "SCHEDULED=today"?
I searched the documentation but haven't found anything.
Thanks, Richard

I always use org-tags-view to list my todo entries and I hoped that
with a clever MATCH string one could filter the searches based on
scheduling / deadlines. I think that would be an ideal solution.
,----
| `org-tags-view' is an interactive Lisp function
| -- loaded from "org"
| (org-tags-view &optional TODO-ONLY MATCH)
|
| Documentation:
| Show all headlines for all `org-agenda-files' matching a TAGS criterion.
| The prefix arg TODO-ONLY limits the search to TODO entries.

One way to do this is to define your own agenda view through
`org-agenda-custom-commands':
For example:
[-- Attachment #2: bzg-agenda-command.el --]
[-- Type: application/emacs-lisp, Size: 940 bytes --]
[-- Attachment #3: Type: text/plain, Size: 275 bytes --]
BTW: you can replace :timestamp by :deadline or whatever `org-diary' is
supposed to understand -- but so far i cannot get :scheduled display
today's scheduled entries. I think it's a bug about time computation in
`org-agenda-get-day-entries'.
Hope this helps,

Maybe you've set org-agenda-include-all-todo to true?
Try M-x customize-variable org-agenda-include-all-todo RET
org-agenda-include-all-todo is a variable defined in `org.el'.
Its value is t
Documentation:
Set means weekly/daily agenda will always contain all TODO entries.
The TODO entries will be listed at the top of the agenda, before
the entries for specific days.
You can customize this variable.
Hope that helps

What I usually do is to schedule the TODOs for a specific day. Then I
use the weekly agenda where I can postpone the TODOs easily with
S-<right> and S-<left>. So a move of a couple of days is easily
done. You can even specify the number of days to move forward or back
with e.g. C-u 5 S-<right>.
It would be fairly easy to extend the function behind S-<right>
(org-agenda-date-later) to do some date calculation (next monday, etc)
with the help of the calendar routines and to bind this to some key in
the agenda view.
C-h f org-agenda-date-later RET should give you a lead.

This is what scheduling is for, and then you use the daily/weekly agenda
instead of the todo list to see those entries. To schedule, use
`C-c C-s', either in the org-mode buffer or in the agenda.
From the date prompt, you can use
+1
+2
+3
to quickly set the date to today+N days.
Fri
Mon
set it to the coming Friday/Monday.
If the entry has a scheduled date already you can shift this date
with S-right. And you can use a prefix argument. for example
7 S-right
will shift the date by 7 days.

Dear Carsten, your reply was as always most helpful and full of
information, thanks. However that is not good for me. I use
org-tags-view all the time, because that way only those tasks get listed
that I can actually do (based on context). I would like to have an
option, that when turned on means that org-tags-view lists all the TODOs
that aren't scheduled in the future.
What do you think Carsten?

I hack together something that does what I needed. I don't know org
internal workings, so it is just a quick and dirty hack. I don't really
know about agenda views as such, maybe what I want to do is possible
with actual org mode stuff, but with my modification org does exactly
what I want the way I want it. Please Carsten, consider adding
something like this to org-mode.
Bastien posted another solution that probably does something very
similar but with lot less internal hacking, Bastien please comment.

The solution you propose lets the user restrict the output of
`org-tags-view' to the past (and today's) entries.
All my little hack[1] does is to display an agenda buffer listing
those entries that:
- have a timestamp for today
- match a regular expression
I thought it could be a good start for your problem. But it's not as
general as your code -- it's just an example of what you can do with
`org-agenda-custom-commands' to make it suit your needs.

This can be achieved, as has been shown by you and by Bastien, using
special user-defined commands.
Another option, maybe simpler, is to use the local options in agenda
custom commands to insert a function into `org-agenda-skip-function'.
For example, I can write this function:
(defun org-agenda-skip-if-scheduled ()
"Function that can be used in `org-agenda-skip-function',
to skip entries that have been scheduled."
(let (beg end)
(org-back-to-heading t)
(setq beg (point)) ; beginning of headline
(outline-next-heading)
(setq end (point)) ; end of entry below heading
(goto-char beg)
(if (re-search-forward org-scheduled-time-regexp end t)
end ; skip, and continue search after END
nil ; Don't skip, use this entry.
)))
and then define a custom command like this:
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
'(("b" tags "@SHOP"
((org-agenda-skip-function org-agenda-skip-if-scheduled)))))
org-agenda-skip-function should *never* be set with `setq' or so,
but you can use the options field in custom commands to temporarily
assign a value.
The next version will have two functions,
org-agenda-skip-if-scheduled and
org-agenda-skip-if-scheduled-or-deadline
built-in, so it will be easier to find entries that have no deadline
and/or
have not been scheduled. For your specific application, I guess you
also have to look at the timestamp and see if it is in the future.
Having seen your other lisp code, I guess you can do this yourself.
Hope this helps.

This must be "(1- end)" instead of "end".

org-agenda-skip-if-scheduled must be quoted, thus:
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
'(("b" tags "@SHOP"
((org-agenda-skip-function 'org-agenda-skip-if-scheduled)))))

That's great!
Playing with this i wrote a custom agenda view that skips TODOs below
levels 1 and 2. This is something i've been looking for, since the
hierarchy of my Org file somehow reflects the importance of a task.
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
;; Put your own custom key
'(("c" todo "TODO"
((org-agenda-skip-function
'org-agenda-skip-if-below-level)))))
(defun org-agenda-skip-if-below-level ()
"Function that can be used in `org-agenda-skip-function',
to skip entries that are below a level 1 and 2."
(let (beg end)
(org-back-to-heading t)
(setq beg (point)) ; beginning of headline
(outline-next-heading)
(setq end (point)) ; end of entry below heading
(goto-char beg)
(while (eq (get-text-property (point) 'face) 'org-hide)
(forward-char))
(if (not (member (get-text-property (point) 'face)
'(org-level-1 org-level-2)))
(1- end) ; skip, and continue search after END
nil ; Don't skip, use this entry.
)))
