I found it in this section of the docs: https://orgmode.org/manual/Setting-options.html#Setting-options I had unbalanced parenthesis in Feb. and gave up. I was finally able to find the right place to put the options for all the commands (see org-agenda-buffer-name) below. I create variables and used functions to modularize my code - otherwise the parenthesis become unbearable IMHO. (setq org-agenda-custom-commands '()) (defun njn-define-block-agenda() (setq njn-agenda '(("h" "Agenda and Projects (Home)" ((agenda ) (tags "-projectA-projectB-projectC/next\|started" ((org-agenda-todo-ignore-with-date nil))) (tags "projectA-inactive/-cancelled-done" ((org-agenda-prefix-format " %?-12t% s") (org-agenda-sorting-strategy (quote (priority-down))))) (tags "projectA-inactive/-cancelled-done" ((org-agenda-prefix-format " %-16(njn-get-proj-property) %?-12t% s") (org-tags-exclude-from-inheritance (remove "projectA" org-tags-exclude-from-inheritance)) (org-agenda-group-by-property "PROJ")))) ((org-agenda-buffer-name "Home"))))) (setq org-agenda-custom-commands (append njn-agenda org-agenda-custom-commands))) (njn-define-block-agenda) I realize this is opening a can of worms -- does anyone have recommendations for formatting Lisp code? The above code is legible for me *right now* but in about 3 months the code will once again be a paren-fest.
