Re: How to get a list of unscheduled TODOs

[Saurabh Agrawal <mailsaurabh@gmail.com>]

Thanks for the reply Manish.

But after I modify my .emacs, I get the following error on starting
the custom agenda:

byte-code: Before first headline at position 1462 in buffer *Org Agenda*

Could you please suggest something? I am unable to debug this.
