Hi all

i discovered today  the 'org-agenda-view-columns-initially' option and
really like it. one annoying issue is that after i launch my agenda view ,
in order to exit the agenda view i need to press 'q' twice. once to leave
the column view which gets me back to the agenda view (non column) and then
another 'q' to leave the agenda view
is there anyway around this where 'q' in the agenda column view will close
down the agenda view altogether?

thx

'q' is a way to switch from column view to non-column view.  I think
that's reasonable.

If you really want you can advice 'org-agenda-quit' (which is bound to
'q' in the agenda) to always quit column view before all other action.

#v+
(advice-add
 'org-agenda-quit
 :before
 (lambda () (if org-agenda-columns-active (org-columns-quit))))
#v-

Another possibility would be to advice 'Q' like

#v+
(advice-add
 'org-agenda-Quit
 :before
 (lambda () (if org-agenda-columns-active (org-columns-quit))))
#v-

All not so well tested.
