Thanks. I agree this is prolly a better approach.
I did get things to work (see code in post-script) a bit using your suggestion
and:
http://orgmode.org/manual/Block-agenda.html#Block-agenda
http://orgmode.org/manual/Storing-searches.html#Storing-searches
But maybe I wasn't clear enough in describing what I 'm trying to do.
I 'd like to parse the weekly Agenda (C-c a a) to show only those items that
meet the specified criteria (eg, certain tags, todo-tags, or properties). The
advantage is that that shows the relevant items, will complete details of
dates, etc. Its sort of running a grep on the weekly Agenda output.
Any ideas are appreciated.
V.
PS: The two custom searches that I coded up are:
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
'(("h" "Agenda for context Home"
((agenda "")
(tags "HOME")))))
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
'(("h" "Agenda for context Home" agenda (tags "HOME"))))

view
FWIW, I use tags to mark contexts and filtering on tags is really
really fast and flexible.
