Here is a brainstorm/RFC/FR. It is not entirely worked out, but it gives the flavor. The idea is to make Org agenda act more like Dired for consistency. For example, we might have commands like: 1) %m -- mark headers with regexp 2) %g -- mark headers with regexp in body text of entry 3) %M -- mark lines containing a regexp + this would allow matching category/prefix etc. + Dired doesn't have this feature 4) k -- kill this line or marked lines + this is similar to how < kills lines in the agenda that do not have the current category 5) t -- toggle all marks 6) s -- change sorting without redoing the whole agenda Example of how it would work: If you want to show only lines in the agenda that have a category that matches "^x": 1) %M ^..x RET to mark 2) t to toggle 3) k to show only the lines you want This is actually something I want to do frequently. It's like < except with a regexp. A command could do it, but it might also be useful if the commands were more Dired-like. Comments?

I favor this too -- thanks for raising this.
8.3 is already overloaded with new features, so let's put this
for 8.4, and let's continue to refine the suggestion.
