log-mode & archived entries

log-mode & archived entries

[Dachsy]

Hi!

Once in a while (normaly once a month) I have to look what I have done
the last weeks. The log-mode would be perfect for this, unfortunately
it seems that it does not show any entries that are archived (normally
I archive done entries quite fast using
"org-archive-to-archive-sibling" since I don't want to clutter my .org
file).

Since I didn't find anything in the manual: Is there any way to
inherit the archived entries when pressing 'l' in the agenda view?

Thanks for this great emacs mode!

Hm, if I understand correctly, listing of archived tasks should work
simply by setting `org-agenda-skip-archived-trees` to nil, right?

I already tried that, but changing this variable (tried t and nil)
does not change the visibility of archived tasks - they are not
shown. I also tried your `my-org-agenda-toggle-seeing-archived`, which
gives me the message "Viewing archived tasks on" but doesn't show any
archived tasks (only the ones that are done but not yet archived).

Is this a bug? 
BTW: I'm using org-6.05a.

Thanks,
  dachsy

Are you sure you are archiving to a sibling, not to a separate file?

I was going to implement Manuels idea anyway, so I just did that.
If you pull the latest version from git, you have two new commands
in the agenda:

`v'      will toggle the inclusion of trees with the ARCHIVE tag,
          this includes obviously the archive sibling.
`C-u v'  will include trees with ARCHIVE tag, and will also include
          all archive files that are currently associated with your
          agenda files.

Manuel, thanks for this nice idea.  I did not implement your key  
definitions,
in the hope that users will know that they are in a special view.
