Could someone show me an example of mutually exclusive tag setting in
elisp please? There is an example of non exclusive ones in the manual:

     (setq org-tag-alist '(("@work" . ?w) ("@home" . ?h) ("laptop"
     . ?l)))

But how to do it for

     #+TAGS: { @work(w)  @home(h)  @tennisclub(t) }  laptop(l)  pc(p)
?

thanks,

r.

@work, @home, @errand are exclusive below.

admin, org, notaproject, newtask are not.

(setq org-tag-alist '((:startgroup . nil) ("@work" . ?w) ("@home" . ?h) ("@errand" . ?e) (:endgroup . nil) 
		      ("admin" . ?a) ("org" . ?o) ("notaproject" . ?n) ("newtask" . ?x)))

HTH,
Bernt

Explicitly show an example for setting org-tag-alist globally
with mutually exclusive tags for people new to lisp.

I had trouble with this originally and ended up digging in the org.el
code to figure out how to do this.  Hopefully this makes it easier
on org-mode users :)

 automatically present you with a special interface, listing inherited
