displaying outline path in agenda

Hi!

Apologies for the rash of posts.  Hopefully some of these will be
useful, if only by chance :)

I recently wrote about a way for recording an event that only repeats a
few times, using something like

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Standing Appointments
** TODO Swing III
*** Week 1
    <2008-01-21 Mon 19:30-21:30>
*** Week 2
    <2008-01-28 Mon 19:30-21:30>
*** Week 3
    <2008-02-04 Mon 19:30-21:30>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

One problem with this approach is that the agenda entry is not
especially informative-- simply "Week 1".  I'd like to edit the function
that generates the agenda entries from active timestamps to include the
option of using new outline path notation.  In this case, the agenda
would read "Standing Appointments/Swing III/Week 1".

I've already identified org-get-outline-path and org-format-agenda-line
as functions that might be relevant, but it seems to me that
org-format-agenda-line comes in to late in the process.  What I really
want is to replace use the outline path as the txt argument to
org-format-agenda-line.  Can anyone point me towards the part of the
org.el source I should be looking at for adding this functionality?

Thanks,
/au

I think you have have to fiddle with all of the functions that are
called from org-agenda-get-day-entries, i.e. 
org-agenda-get-todos, org-agenda-get-timestamps, org-agenda-get-blocks,
org-agenda-get-sexps, org-agenda-get-scheduled, 
org-agenda-get-deadlines.

Try if you can get it to work with one (I guess org-agenda-get-scheduled
for your case) and see if changes are needed in the others.
