I have the following snippet in my .emacs file, which I find very useful. Basically what it does is that if I don't touch my Emacs for 5 minutes, it displays the current agenda. This keeps my tasks "always in mind" whenever I come back to Emacs after doing something else, whereas before I had a tendency to forget that it was there.

I've been searching for a good way to remember to look at my agenda.
Great idea!

This is fantastically useful.
Thanks very much!

I like this also. It would be fantastic if the agenda were displayed,
as it is now, while a simple keystroke would return one to the point
he was at when the function was called. I might one day have time to
try to figure out how to do this, not saying I would be able to do so
easily.

Basically:
Use a variable to store the (current-window-configuration) and then
have a
separate function restoring that configuration using set-window-
configuration.
