You're a little ahead of me on Org and I am using Emacs 26.1 under
Cygwin to get a more Unix-like environment (personal taste).

You're much more advanced than I am on Org. I mostly a beginner who is
also looking to hook it into BeOrg and other iOS tools for my family. I
like Org for managing all the family information, but Apple tools are
simpler for the non-computer literate. Things like being able to use
Siri to create family reminders or grocery lists is hard to ignore (but
coming with BeOrg).

I've hacked Emacs some over the last 35 years, but I'm not a deep Elisp
programmer. Over the years, I was more the type to read other people's
Elisp packages and add the interesting ones into my .emacs.
I think I'm beginning to see from your custom agenda commands how to
adjust the standard agenda views without doing too much elisp
programming. I was hoping to find more examples of agenda setups to get
simpler ones that I could use.
Thanks
