That is what I am doing now as my =93non-visual=94 version. It actually = works pretty well. My thought is to create something like one of the = online Kanban boards for more visual impact. I didn't elaborate before since the question was about TODO states, but = I have 4 Kanban-named views in my ~org-agenda-custom-commands~; one view = each for BACKLOG, TODO, and DOING so that I can look at each stage = individually and a fourth with all three of those blocks as you suggest = to get them all at once. With Org babel, and my org-mode configuration being a ~.org~ file, I = also manage to achieve DRY. My three individual agenda blocks are = defined once, and the complete view just references them with <<>> noweb = syntax. Did I mention how awesome Org mode is ? I should have :) Mike
