While investigating the previous issue, I came upon this code:
;;;###autoload
(defun org-store-agenda-views (&rest parameters)
"Store agenda views."
(interactive)
(eval (list 'org-batch-store-agenda-views)))
I guess there is some advantage over the following, simpler version?
;;;###autoload
(defun org-store-agenda-views (&rest parameters)
"Store agenda views."
(interactive)
(org-batch-store-agenda-views))
If so, what is it?
Thanks in advance for furthering my education,
Kosta
