You're right. It's a 2-tier grouping mechanism really, e.g. (1) group work-related tasks into ~/work/TODO.org and appointments into ~/work/diary.org, then (2) group all work-related files together so that tag/keyword searches etc. can be performed on them all in one go. _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
