Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen.  You don't know how to make a good report?  See

     http://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback

Your bug report will be posted to the Org-mode mailing list.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Calling e.g. (org-batch-agenda 'ab') will report "Invalid agenda key"
instead of printing headlines with tag "ab".

To fix, change the macro line 10 to

(defmacro org-batch-agenda (cmd-key &rest parameters)
  "Run an agenda command in batch mode and send the result to STDOUT.
If CMD-KEY is a string of length 1, it is used as a key in
`org-agenda-custom-commands' and triggers this command.  If it is a
longer string it is used as a tags/todo match string.
Parameters are alternating variable names and values that will be bound
before running the agenda command."
  (org-eval-in-environment (org-make-parameter-alist parameters)
    (let (org-agenda-sticky)
      (if (> (length cmd-key) 1)                  ;; CHANGE HERE TO 1 
	  (org-tags-view nil cmd-key)
	(org-agenda nil cmd-key))))
  (set-buffer org-agenda-buffer-name)
  (princ (buffer-string)))
