Maybe even a patch? ah, of course! i tried to find the information by searching the web for different variations of "org-mode", "search tags", and "current file". here are three proposed additions to the org-mode manual to make it easier to find this information: 1. add to the key-index page of the org-manual: C-c a 1 m will run the tags match command on the current file only 2. add to the tag searches page of the org-manual, 6.3: C-c a 1 m will run the tags match command on the current file only 3. add to the property searches page of the org-manual, 7.3: C-c a 1 m Match: BIB_AUTHOR="Walter Evensong" This will run the property match command on the current file only and find all entries that contain "Walter Evensong" in their BIB_AUTHOR field. as i mentioned in an earlier post, this also results in a feature request: implement "C-c a 1 p" for doing property searches on the current file -- something that would have the tab-completion of "C-c a 1 m". this would reduce the need for typing the key/value query by hand.
