C-h v org-agenda-block-s= eparator RET says: ,---- | org-agenda-block-separator is a variable defined in `org-agenda.el'. | Its value is 61 |=20 | Documentation: | The separator between blocks in the agenda. | If this is a string, it will be used as the separator, with a newline add= ed. | If it is a character, it will be repeated to fill the window width. | If nil the separator is disabled. In `org-agenda-custom-commands' this | addresses the separator between the current and the previous block. |=20 | You can customize this variable. `---- (61 is '=3D') So you can customize it and set it to a string of your choice, or you can display the block agenda in a window of width <=3D 80 chars and then print the window. Both suggestions untested but I hope one or the other or both work. Nick
