Sigh, at times it's the small things that you miss that bite you in the
foot.
(defun org-dblock-write:recently-modified (params)
(insert (mapconcat (lambda (arg) (concat "[[file:" arg "][" arg "]]" ))
(split-string (shell-command-to-string "ls -t
/cygdrive/c/Dropbox/org *.org | head -10")) "\n")))
(org-agenda nil "a")
(delete-other-windows)
(split-window-horizontally)
(find-file "/cygdrive/c/Dropbox/org/Refile.org")
I forgot (delete-other-windows), I don't know if it the default behavior but
my agenda opens up 1/2 height and I have to run C-x 1 to make it full
screen after C-c a a . . .now to get my next dynamic block function
(another thread to be started) working and I will have my weekly agenda on
one side of the screen. On the tother I will have recently modified files
on the other, needing filed captures and Unscheduled TODO items.
Thanks for all the help everyone has thrown my way. I am going to look at
Filippos' code to see if I can even make this a bit more elegant.
