And, as promised, here's the updated version of the agenda printer
script.  This version has only bugfixes and compatibility fixes.
There are some more fundamental changes (listed in the TODOs in the
source comments) that need to be made, but I'm waiting on a round tuit
for them.  I hope people find this useful, and that it is more usable
for them than the previous version.

Changes:
  1. Uses os.popen3 rather than the subprocess module; as a result, it
     should work with python versions earlier than 2.4.
  2. Better quoting for characters in headlines that could cause
     problems in the LaTeX output.

# Documentation:
# pyagenda is a short python program for taking a formatted agenda
# from org-mode (via org-batch-agenda-csv) and producing a PDF-format
# planner page that can be inserted in a planner binder.  Run
# 'pyagenda --help' for usage.
#
# Currently, this is only a crude 'worksforme' implementation, with
# many things being hardcoded.  It produces an output file named
# cmdkey.pdf where 'cmdkey' is the key given to
# org-agenda-custom-commands. Not all arbitrary searches will work.
# Be aware that it may overwrite cmdkey.tex, cmdkey.log, cmdkey.aux,
# etc.  The output size is hardcoded to 5.5x8.0in, which is suitable
# for a Circa or Rollabind junior sized planner.  The output is not
# suitable for daily/weekly agenda views, and does not present all the
# information it could.  If you want to change any of the output, edit
# the TEX_* constants.
#
# TODO:
#   1. Use safer tmpfile handling.
#   2. Nicer command-line handling.
#   3. Prettier output, including use of more of the information
#      passed by org-batch-agenda-csv.
