TODO list with future scheduled events excluded

TODO list with future scheduled events excluded

[Georg Otto]

Dear all,

with the TODO list view (org-todo-list) I get all my TODO entries,
including the ones that are scheduled far in the future. This clutters
up this view quite a bit, and I would prefer to have a TODO list with
entries scheduled to future days excluded.

Maybe miss something obvious, but so far I did not find any
solution. Does anybody have an idea?

I am running emacs 24.3.1 and orgmode 7.9.3f 

Cheers,

Georg

You can customize the following variables:

- org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled
- org-agenda-todo-ignore-deadlines

E.g.,

(setq org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled 'future)

See http://orgmode.org/manual/Global-TODO-list.html

See also the docstrings of the variables for more information.
