A nice "trick" but very simple I'm using is to automatically add to my org-agenda-files every org file that I create. In this way everything is always reachable via grep/tags/whatever. Just do this: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (defun org-add-eventually() "Adding a file to org-agenda when saved" (interactive) (if (string= major-mode "org-mode") (org-agenda-file-to-front))) (add-hook 'before-save-hook 'org-add-eventually) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
