Hi everyone, already in Januar, Max Mikhanosha had published the first version of his code to implement multiple agenda buffers. I have worked with him over the last few weeks, and we think that it is now quite stable.
Sticky agenda buffers (this is how Max calls it now) means the ability to keep multiple agenda buffer around. So while this does not cut down on the time it takes to create an agenda view, it has massive impact in a situation where you would like to switch between different agenda views frequently. The code it available in the git repository, in the branch max-sticky-agenda. And it would be great if a few people could go ahead and do some testing before we merge it. Testing should be done both with sticky buffers turned off and turned on. We have made it now very simple to test it: git pull origin git checkout max-sticky-agenda Then, in Emacs, use the `*' key in the agenda dispatcher to turn sticky buffers on and off. Since sticky buffers are not made new each time you look at them, you need to update them when you think it is needed, by pressing `g' or `r' in the buffer. To make sure all buffer are rebuilt, use `C-c a * *', so press the star twice to toggle sticky buffer off and back on. This will remove all existing agenda buffers, so that they will be made again when you dispatch to them. Regards - Carsten and Max
