Hi,
Any ideas on these?
Short versions of the questions:
1. Why does Emacs ignore 2 out of 3 agenda custom commands, which I defined
through the customize interface and appear in correct syntax in my ~/.emacs?
2. Why does (org-agenda-sorting-strategy (quote (time-up))) have no effect in a
tags-todo search?
