Is there a way to show sub-headings in an agenda file for exporting
purposes? I looked through the manual and couldn't find such a thing.

Can you please be more specific with your request?

An example, maybe?

I think he means something like the following:

** TODO This amazing event
     DEADLINE: <2008-04-21 Mon>
*** TODO First part of the event
*** TODO Second part of the event

And then in agenda instead of seeing just:
This amazing event

You'd see the subtree as well:
This amazing event
    First part of the event
    Second part of the event

Or something like that.  I'm not sure how this would be implemented,
but it certainly would be really neat.

That is exactly what I meant. Thanks for the example and the translation.

  Please check out `f' (org-agenda-follow-mode) and `b'
(org-agenda-tree-to-indirect-buffer) in agenda view.  May be they
would suffice?

Dear Manish,

Not quite. Although these are very useful enhancements while I'm at the
computer, I was looking for something that I could publish -- so I could
carry around a hard copy showing contextual levels.

For example

* Let Jimmy know about annual picnic
** NEXT Write letter to Jimmy                               @COMPUTER
** NEXT Send it                                                    @ERRAND

If when I look for all todo items matching NEXT, I'll see:

** Write letter
** Send it

Which when I publish doesn't tell me enough. Of course I could become more
verbose in my sub-level captions, but it would be better to see relevant
headlines and relevant sub-headlines.

  I see what you are saying.  That has been a minor annoyance for me
as well.  I have been trying to deal with this by being, like you
suggested, more verbose.  But I wonder if agenda should show items
that are not scheduled/meant for the day.  To test the idea I decided
to write up a small test plan and see what we would want the final
agenda to look like.

How would you like the agenda to show up on, say, the 24th?

Well, I was thinking about using it more for tag matches -- like NEXT. But I
am beginning to see how such a feature might make agenda commands grow in
their output and defeat their purpose. For now, I think I can be more
verbose. That little inconvenience is worth all the immense advantages of
org-mode.
