org: Agenda Views

 
 10 Agenda views
 ***************
 
 Due to the way Org works, TODO items, time-stamped items, and tagged
 headlines can be scattered throughout a file or even a number of files.
 To get an overview of open action items, or of events that are important
 for a particular date, this information must be collected, sorted and
 displayed in an organized way.
 
    Org can select items based on various criteria and display them in a
 separate buffer.  Seven different view types are provided:
 
    • an _agenda_ that is like a calendar and shows information for
      specific dates,
    • a _TODO list_ that covers all unfinished action items,
    • a _match view_, showings headlines based on the tags, properties,
      and TODO state associated with them,
    • a _timeline view_ that shows all events in a single Org file, in
      time-sorted view,
    • a _text search view_ that shows all entries from multiple files
      that contain specified keywords,
    • a _stuck projects view_ showing projects that currently don’t move
      along, and
    • _custom views_ that are special searches and combinations of
      different views.
 
 The extracted information is displayed in a special _agenda buffer_.
 This buffer is read-only, but provides commands to visit the
 corresponding locations in the original Org files, and even to edit
 these files remotely.
 
    Two variables control how the agenda buffer is displayed and whether
 the window configuration is restored when the agenda exits:
 ‘org-agenda-window-setup’ and ‘org-agenda-restore-windows-after-quit’.
