Subject: Sorting WAITING tasks from old to new
Date: Thu, 05 Sep 2024 04:43:49 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4_hEdAR_6FcBo5yLPthjIbYx60lBs4F3KhXR4jzp3KZGXchGCqvwAW7xUdDDPrLahDLYS-uXpTRTQTut3I3eoQ1WW26FfLxL4nrUA4dk21U=@williamdenton.org> (raw)

If I look at all my TODOs (org-todo-list) and filter to WAITING (4 r) then all the tasks in this view are shown in the order they appear in the files where the tasks are listed.  Is there a way to sort them from old to new (or new to old) so I can see which ones have been in that status for the longest?

I looked in the manual and the mailing list archives, and did some searching elsewhere, but didn't turn up any examples of this, which surprised me, so perhaps I overlooked something obvious, but if not, perhaps someone has some code?

Thanks,

Bill
