Hi, I am trying to set up a class notes system using Org (based on my
Nexus 7 w/BT Keyboard, but that's another story)
I mostly have things they way I would like (I think), with each day's
class notes as an org file, and a capture template to insert an entry
into a date tree with some information + a link to the file name.
This is all working great.
What I would like is an agenda view that will pull the date tree
entries matching a certain tag (IE class name) *AND* the linked file,
and combine them into an agenda file
For example,
* 2013
** 2013-01 January
*** 2013-01-21 Monday
**** NOTE [2013-01-21 Mon 1410] :class1:
<filename.c>
*** 2013-01-28 Monday
**** NOTE [2013-01-28 Mon 14:51] :class1:
<filename.a>
**** NOTE [2013-01-28 Mon 14:51] :class2:
<filename.9>
*** 2013-01-29 Tuesday
**** NOTE [2013-01-29 Mon 14:51] :class1:
<filename.b>
Would like to transform this to something like:
:class1:
2013-01-21 Monday
<contents of filename.c>
2013-01-28 Monday
<contents of filename.a>
2013-01-29 Tuesday
<contents of filename.b>
Any ideas? I'm an avid org user in some ways but pretty new to agenda
file customization

You can do this manually -- in your date-tree file:
M-x org-agenda RET < a
will produce the agenda view for this file.
Then in this first agenda view, / TAB :class1: will
filter out entries that don't have the :class1: tag.
Then `E' will show the first lines of each entries,
displaying the .c files.
Of course, you can also build a custom agenda view
which does all this -- see the manual and the tutorials
on http://orgmode.org/worg/.
HTH,

Sorry, that , while cool, is not what I am looking for.
Following the instructions you game will show
org-agenda-entry-text-maxlines (default 5) lines
of the entry itself in the note file:
So, if this is then entry in the date tree in the Daily-work-log.org file:
**** LOG <2013-01-31 Thu> /home/stindall/.emacs
Lots of time helping tom w/test plan for xtn_invgen_BE.pl
some lines
some more lines
Running the agenda command initially shows this:
Daily-work-log.org: LOG /home/stindall/.emacs
Hitting E expands it to:
Daily-work-log.org: LOG /home/stindall/.emacs
Lots of time helping tom w/test plan for xtn_invgen_BE.pl
some lines
some more lines
What I'm looking for is a way to load the contents of
/home/stindall/.emacs into the agenda,
ideally producing something similar to this:
LOG <datestamp> /home/stindall/.emacs
<contents of .emacs file>
LOG <datestamp> <some other file>
<contents of some other file>
my elisp-fu is not strong, so I'm hoping that a workable approximation
of what I need already exists.

I better understand now, thanks for the explanations.

Mhh.. no, it does not exist.
