Hello! I use unicode characters as TODO keywords and noticed that the "M" agenda view doesn't find all my TODO entries.
My TODO keywords: ┌──── │ org-todo-keywords '((sequence "≣(p)" "|" "∎(f)") │ (sequence "◇(t)" "★" "⌛(w)" "🔥(.)" "⚙(s)" "⎇(r)" "⏵(e)" "|" "✔(d)" "✘(c)") │ (sequence "⛱(m)" "|")) │ └──── Digging a bit I found that the `re' regex at be beginning of `org-scan-tags' is responsible: ┌──── │ (re (concat "^" │ (if start-level │ ;; Get the correct level to match │ (concat "\\*\\{" (number-to-string start-level) "\\} ") │ org-outline-regexp) │ " *\\(" (regexp-opt org-todo-keywords-1 'words) "\\)?" │ " *\\(.*?\\)\\([ \t]:\\(?:" org-tag-re ":\\)+\\)?[ \t]*$")) └──── The `(regexp-opt org-todo-keywords-1 'words)' excludes most of my TODO keywords (but not all). Changing `'words' to `'symbols' give me my desired result. Short reproducer for some TODO keywords: ┌──── │ (let* ((todo-keywords '("TODO" "DONE" "PROJECT" "≣" "∎" "◇" "★" "⌛" "🔥" "⚙" "⎇" "⏵" "✔" "✘")) │ (re-words (regexp-opt todo-keywords 'words)) │ (re-symbols (regexp-opt todo-keywords 'symbols))) │ (list │ (-map (lambda (kw) (when (string-match-p re-words kw) kw)) todo-keywords) │ (-map (lambda (kw) (when (string-match-p re-symbols kw) kw)) todo-keywords))) │ (("TODO" "DONE" "PROJECT" nil nil nil nil nil "🔥" "⚙" nil nil "✔" "✘") │ ("TODO" "DONE" "PROJECT" "≣" "∎" "◇" "★" "⌛" "🔥" "⚙" "⎇" "⏵" "✔" "✘")) └──── I have no idea why "⚙" is a word and "⌛" isn't, but would you accept a patch that changes `'words' to `'symbols'? Or is there another way around my problem? ~marcel
