Subject: Dired-like agenda
Date: Fri, 6 Jun 2014 22:11:29 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAJcAo8sfoRxqV4HAJuRv+P70P3c4gMestoJfHPav2XVn-J6iLA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Here is a brainstorm/RFC/FR. It is not entirely worked out,
but it gives the flavor.
The idea is to make Org agenda act more like Dired
for consistency.
For example, we might have commands like:
1) %m -- mark headers with regexp
2) %g -- mark headers with regexp in body text of entry
3) %M -- mark lines containing a regexp
+ this would allow matching category/prefix etc.
+ Dired doesn't have this feature
4) k -- kill this line or marked lines
+ this is similar to how < kills lines in the agenda
that do not have the current category
5) t -- toggle all marks
6) s -- change sorting without redoing the whole agenda
Example of how it would work:
If you want to show only lines in the agenda that have a
category that matches "^x":
1) %M ^..x RET to mark
2) t to toggle
3) k to show only the lines you want
This is actually something I want to do frequently. It's
like < except with a regexp. A command could do it, but it
might also be useful if the commands were more Dired-like.
Comments?
