Subject: My new favorite custom agenda command
Date: Fri, 15 Apr 2011 08:59:03 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <BANLkTi=um972mVLJ-1Y5cRifSjWjvqXt1A@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I have been working on learning and playing with some lisp and looking
through the amazing powerfulness of orgmode.  This is my new favorite
agenda command.  I use it as the right hand side of my startup buffers
(I have two).  On the left I have my refile.org file (the "I am not
sure where I am putting this item but I need a container for it") that
is a temporary storage buffer I need to try to keep empty except for
my refile headlines and a dynamic block showing recently updated
files.  On the right is the following calendar, gives me a good
overview.  Of course for some users the deadline warning days might
need to be smaller for unscheduled deadlines.

Thanks for all the help and good ideas I have seen flowing through the
list that has helped me get to where I can start hacking orgmode to be
what I want/need it to be.

Matt
