Trying to print the agenda in the terminal - emacs stdout limit?

Trying to print the agenda in the terminal - emacs stdout limit?

Hey guys,

I'm doing a small experiment and trying to print the agenda buffer to the
terminal. I have a elisp script (with the shebang in the top pointing to
emacs with the --script flag), and the following code (besides the code
that loads org);

(org-agenda nil "t")
(set-buffer "*Org Agenda*")
(message (buffer-substring-no-properties (point-min) (point-max)))

If I eval this block in Emacs, the whole agenda text is shown in the
*Messages* buffer, but when I run it from the command line, it only shows
the first two lines:

➜  ~  ./script.el
Global list of TODO items of type: ALL
Available with `N r': (0)ALL

The rest seems to be truncated somehow. Does anyone know what could be
happening?

Thanks in advance,

Marcelo.

Quick test here with emacs 23 and 24 seems to work.

,----[ (info "(emacs)Initial Options") ]

`----

Did you setq your org-agenda-files in that script?
My first guess would be it is not set.
