Hi all, apologies for resurrecting an older thread, but I was searching
for this very capability and found this post.

I have been trying to figure this one out myself. Thank goodness for
list archives!

Ok, I tried this and I'm not sure what it did, if anything. I get the
mini-buffer saying, 'Specified time is not representable' I've tried
various date range possibilities, and can't get it to work.
I did also change the '(org-occur "CLOSED: +\\[\\(.*?\\)\\]" nil
callback)))' to be instead '(org-occur "DONE +\\[\\(.*?\\)\\]" nil
callback)))' due to the way my org seems to represent finished items:
** DONE fix the apt puppet module to automatically add apt-keys, publish that new repository and deploy
SCHEDULED: <2009-03-16 Mon>
- State "DONE" [2009-03-16 Mon 14:49] \\
made this a lot nicer
CLOCK: [2009-03-16 Mon 14:21]--[2009-03-16 Mon 14:21] => 0:00
[2009-03-16 Mon]
As far as I can tell, I did not setup this format. I tried to change the
(org-occur "CLOSED... to be "DONE..." instead, but no change here
either.
Thanks for any help!
