Useful , but the comments seem to be misleading in that the file names
are not shown regardless of toggle state. Or is file name used as a more
general category when no specific category is put it?

Which is another cloudy issue for me - file name and category.

e.g I have a file "linux.org". In it I have a category "General". But in
the agenda this is not specific enough e,g I will see another General
item from "Emacs" category "General". possibly all down to reformatting
the output. I'm not sure I am clear about what categories are.
