I mostly a beginner who is also looking to hook it into BeOrg and other iOS tools for my family. I like Org for managing all the family information, but Apple tools are simpler for the non-computer literate. Things like being able to use Siri to create family reminders or grocery lists is hard to ignore (but coming with BeOrg). > I am not aware of any other manuals.

I've hacked Emacs some over the last 35 years, but I'm not a deep Elisp programmer. Over the years, I was more the type to read other people's Elisp packages and add the interesting ones into my .emacs. I think I'm beginning to see from your custom agenda commands how to adjust the standard agenda views without doing too much elisp programming. I was hoping to find more examples of agenda setups to get simpler ones that I could use. Thanks -- David
