I created this function which works well.

(defun z/org-sparse-todo ()

(interactive)

(org-match-sparse-tree t "+TODO=\"TODO\""))

my question is how can i match on ANY todo state and not just literaly TODO

ie if i have this in my org file

#+TODO: TODO(t) EXP(e) | SUBMITTED(s) K_TRACK(k) PAUSED(p) DONE(d)

how can i match it by all the todos like TODO and EXP

Best
