I think that the problem is the call to org-agenda-bulk-mark= on line 10160 (it doesn't mark

Hi Bastien,

I'm using emacs -u NONE with em= acs 27.0.50
and Org mode version 9.2.5

A= nd I'm not seeing this expected behavior.

I ha= ve the following simple foo.or= g file for my agenda:
* TODO Foo
* TODO Pre Class
* TODO Again

I'm using the built-in a= genda view for TODO entries ("t")
and I'm searching= using

Pre\sClass
{Pre\sClass}
Pre Class
"Pre Class"

And the= entry is not *marked* in the agenda, but there are messages=C2=A0
saying "1 entries marked for bulk action"

<= div>If I search for "Pre Clas" and "Pre\sCl" etc. the e= ntries are marked.

If I search for "Class&quo= t; (no quotes) then there's no match.=C2=A0 However, if I=C2=A0
search for "Cla" (no quotes) then there is a match and the hea= ding is marked.

So, it appears there's a probl= em *if the match ends on the last character of the heading*.

=
In fact, I can replicate the problem by searching in the agenda = manually by searching for "Class"
(no quotes) :) and th= en calling (call-interactively 'org-agenda-bulk-mark) - the mark is not= made and
there's a message "user-error: Nothing to mark= at point"

Not sure how to fix it but wanted = to show my awesome debugging skills :)))

Thanks,

There is nothing special with the regexps you need to enter with
`org-agenda-bulk-mark-regexp', you can use the same syntax you would use for, e.g., C-u C-s in Emacs.

Note that only the text of the headline is considered, not part of
the agenda line that are not the heading itself (e.g. todo keywords,
tags, etc.)

nope.
