Hello. I want my *Org Agenda* buffer to be open at all times, but I still want to be able to (say) match as many different tags as desired.
Googling and searching the archives suggested 2 possible ways: (1) use of sticky agenda views and (2) use 'M-x rename-uniquely'. Use of sticky agendas does not seem to be suited for my need (but maybe I am missing something), while renaming the buffer seems more promising except that it partly fails -- again, maybe I am missing something or there is a bug. (1) Trying with sticky agendas, I do: M-x org-agenda * a M-x make-frame In the newly created frame: M-x org-agenda m some_tag so far, so good. But If, in that same newly created frame, I want to search for another tag, as soon as I do 'M-x org-agenda m', I get the message "Sticky Agenda buffer, use `r' to refresh". Sure, I can refresh, bug cannot search for another tag. Am I doing something wrong? (2) Trying renaming the buffer, I do: M-x org-agenda a M-x rename-uniquely M-x make-frame In the newly created frame: M-x org-agenda m some_tag At this point, the behavior is as I expect in the newly created agenda view: pressing <TAB> on a given line of the agenda view puts the point at the proper place of the proper buffer in the other window. But it does not work that way in the initial agenda view: pressing <TAB> generates the message "Wrong type argument: integer-or-marker-p, nil". Again, am I doing something wrong? Are there other ways of doing what I want? NB: I have used an extremely minimal setup, both with Org version 8.2.10, which is the default for my GNU Emacs 24.5.1 installation, and with Org version 9.0.8-elpa. I have tried with M-x rename-buffer instead of M-x rename-uniquely, but the result is the same. Thank you for any help.
