TODO list in new buffer?

TODO list in new buffer?

[Sam Cramer]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 503 bytes --]

I'm a new org-mode user.  It's a really nice piece of work, and I'm having a
good time using it to organize a bunch of work-related tasks!

I can't figure out how to create a list of all the TODO items in an org file
in a new buffer.  I'd like to have the TODO list in one buffer and the org
file in another, so I can refer to the TODO list while editing the org file.
 I looked through the manual and didn't see a way to do this, though it's
possible that I overlooked a relevant section.

Thanks,
Sam

C-c a t (org-todo-list) might be what you're looking for.

Thanks.  I had tried that, but nothing happened; I didn't understand that I
needed to add the file to the list of agenda files.  "C-c [" followed by "C
a t" did the trick.

Use M-x clone-indirect-buffer to create another buffer that points to the org
file and then C-c C-v (org-show-todo-tree) in one of the buffers to show the
TODO items.

If all your TODO items are in a subtree you can also go to that subtree and use
C-c C-x b (org-tree-to-indirect-buffer) to create an indirect buffer narrowed to
that subtree.

Cool.  I didn't know about indirect buffers; I can see that my Emacs
knowledge is pretty dated!

Thanks,
Sam
