So I have a custom agenda search:
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands '(("p" "Projects" tags "+xxx|+xx|+x")))
I'd like to also show the DEADLINEs for these projects. Is there an
easy way to do that?

Hi Christopher,
you may want to take a look at column view, which can show the deadline.
Get back here when you cannot figure out how to do this.

OK, so I can't figure out how to do this :-)
First, how I'm using org-mode:
Inside ~/working I have nested project directories; some for home and
some for work; projects within projects within projects. Whenever I
need a new PROJECTNAME.org, I create it wherever in the hierarchy it
belongs, and then symlink it into the proper toplevel (which roughly
corresponds to the start of a particular SVN or Git repository). This
way, I have much smaller list of org-agenda-files to maintain.
I have some custom agenda views defined, that tell me things like what
I have to do today, and what to do in various contexts etc. For this
I aggregate all of the .org files I've written.
I don't want to go adding a :COLUMNS: property to every .org file that
I want to include in a custom view; I'd rather define :COLUMNS: for
"types" of views that I want. Where would I define this? I suppose
that I could write definitions in "hidden" files that get explicitly
sourced based on what view I want, but that seems roundabout...
Thanks... and org-mode rocks!

Hi Christopher,
Changing the columns format from view to view is not trivial.
This is what the variable org-overriding-column-format is
for. You must not set this in a normal way, but only as
an option for an agenda command, for example
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
'(("x" "With deadline columns" alltodo ""
((org-agenda-overriding-columns-format "%20ITEM %DEADLINE")
(org-agenda-start-view-columns-initially t)))))
This will define the "x" as an agenda dispatcher custom key,
creating an agenda view, defining a special columns format,
and immediately turning on column view.
Hmmm, at least this was *supposed* to work this way, but I see
now that there is a little bug.
You need to get the latest git release (or release 6.15c)
for this to work correctly....
