In order to find TODOs where I forgot to add a TAG:

How to get the list of all todos with no TAGS?

In-file view:
 `C-c C-v' runs the command org-show-todo-tree.

Agenda view:
 `C-c a t' lists all TODO entries.

C-c a t does not show a todo without a tag.
I checked the customised org-variables and could not find why.

My fault.  Its job is to show all TODO entries.

This custom command will list all TODO entries (matching "TODO" as a
TODO keyword) with no tags:

(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
      '(("x" todo "TODO"
	 ((org-agenda-skip-function
	   (lambda nil
	     (org-agenda-skip-entry-if 'regexp ":[[:alnum:]:_@]+:[ \t]*")))
	  (org-agenda-overriding-header "TODO entries with no tags: ")))))

Try it with `C-c a x'.

Thank you first of all - but:

it does not work: these todos for example do not show:

*** TODO empty TODO
*** TODO [#A]  [Dongleproblem]: CV070907_002 V07.14 und CV070829_005

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
      '(("x" todo "TODO"
         ((org-agenda-skip-function
          (lambda nil

Small typo.  Just add the "$" at the end of the regexp.

perfect, thank you!

My fault:

I started with the wrong TODO keyword, only looking after the search string ...

Until now every time I needed something more org-mode provides it already - if only in the next
version ... great tool.

An alternative might be:

Do a TAGS search with the match

-{.}/!

The first part -{.} means to exclude all headline where any tag matches
the regular expression ".", i.e. it will exclude all headlines that do 
have
a tag at all (beware of tag inheritance for this, this will exclude also
headline that *inherit* a tag.)

The "!" after the slash means the headline has to be a TODO to be 
listed.

Even shorter, use the TODO/TAGS search (`C-c a M' instead of `C-c a m').
Then the TAG matcher "-{.}" would be enough already.
