Oh, nice. I've never use this search, but it is very useful. Simply by searching for a timestamp before today does already help me. Additionally, playing around with it helped me being even more specific. So what I want to get is an agenda with - headlines that contain only past timestamps and are closed TODOs (if they are TODOs), that is, any TODO state after the | in `org-todo-keywords' - the same applies to all children of that entry, recursively - the agenda should only list the top-most entries for which these properties hold Example: * Project X ** TODO foo SCHEDULED: <2010-06-22 Tue> ** Bla bla bla *** DONE baz DEADLINE: <2010-06-01 Tue> *** Meeting with Hugo <2010-06-04 Fri> So in that case, the search should list only the "Bla bla bla" entry, because it's the top-most entry where all children are past and done. The "TODO foo" is not recognized, because although its timestamp is in the past, it has an open TODO state. (And because of that, the parent of both entries "Project X" doesn't match the search criteria.) > (If I understand the question correctly...)

Although I don't use the stuck projects functionality right now, I don't want to abuse it for something different. > A custom skip function might also be useful here. > > (info "(org) Special agenda views") Thanks, I'll read that up.
