You do realize you are not the first one to have that problem, don't you? Have you seen `org-agenda-todo-yesterday'? ;-) Notice, however, that IMHO this is only a dirty hack. A real solution to the same problem, as you have noticed, is something that I implemented a few years ago, and that was a radical change of my sleeping patterns. Now I seldom go to bed after 22:30, and usually get up before 5:30. This has too many advantages to list them in a short email. :-) (Of course, I am aware not everyone can pull this off, also for objective reasons. My sister is a nurse, for example.) > Anyway, thank you for org-mode, that allows me to be mildly annoyed at > things I wouldn't even have considered might become an issue someday > with programs I used before! Not sure whether this is a compliment, but I like it:-). -- Marcin Borkowski http://mbork.pl
