In the meantime, shouldn't this "glitch" be mentioned in the manual?
The manual does say that 'C-c a s'
Create a list of entries selected by a boolean expression of
keywords and/or regular expressions [...]
Same problem for the 'C-c a s' minibuffer prompt:
Phrase or [+-]Word/{Regexp}
and the subsequent
Press `[', `]' to add/sub word, `{', `}' to add/sub regexp
I also realized that, consistently, using +{[[:upper:]]+o}, also lists
both entries.
Finally, trying to narrow the FOO + foo search results using '=':
`= (`org-agenda-filter-by-regexp')'
Filter the agenda view by a regular expression: only show
agenda entries matching the regular expression the user
entered.
and typing explicitly 'FOO' fails accordingly.
The tutorial
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/advanced-searching.html does not
seem to mention this point either.
Anyway, thanks you very much for your time and feed back.
Regards
a.
PS: considering "horrific hack", I think you meant "In the /short/
run...", but I'm sure the Org developpers have understood it correctly
:-)
