Greetings,
I almost went crazy today trying to export my block agenda. I had my
agenda set up like this:
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands '(
("c" ""
((todo "NEXT|TODO") (agenda))
((org-agenda-with-colors nil)
(ps-font-size '(8 . 8))
(org-agenda-compact-blocks t)
(ps-landscape-mode t)
(ps-number-of-columns 2)
)
("/tmp/todo-list.ps")
)
))
, which seemed correct (show todos and an agenda together and export
it to the /tmp/todo-list.ps file. However, orgmode refused to export
the agenda. Looking at org-agenda.el, I edebugged
org-batch-store-agenda-views, and saw that in line 1774, block agendas
are (seemingly) not parsed correctly. With the syntax from the
documentation and! customize-variable, file and settings are the third
and fourth elements respectively.
So I inserted a nil between the commands and the settings, and my
block agenda miraculously exported.
Is the above setting wrong, or is that a bug in org-mode? (I'm using
6.04c with emacs 22.2-r2).
Regards,
Jan Seeger

The setting is wrong. Parameters in org-agenda-custom-commands are
identified by
position, and your file list is seen as an attempt to set options
(variables)
for the command set. You need nil there.
Can you identify a point in the documentation that made you assume you
could write things a you did?
Thanks.

This looks to me as if only four elements where needed: Key,
description, list of lists of commands (agenda,alltodo etc), settings
and filenames.

You are completely right. This is a bug in Org-mode.
