Dan, thank you. I somehow does and doesn't.
After using the command I get the "private" entries.
After using another command analogous to this it seems I cannot reset
the org-agenda-files variable. Looks like it only adds files to it?
I played around a lot but could not get it to function as wanted.
Hi Rainer, Dan
I just tested this, with
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
'(("ka" "aaa" alltodo ""
((org-agenda-files
'("~/lib/emacs/work/org-mode/test/a.org"
("kb" "bbb" alltodo ""
((org-agenda-files
'("~/lib/emacs/work/org-mode/test/b.org"))
with small files a.org and b.org containing just one TODO entry, and of
course my full suite of TODO entries available with `C-c a t'.
And then I do
C-c a t
C-c a a
C-c a b
C-c a t
and it all works just fine, going back end forth between these in any
sequence.
Anyway, the syntax is quite complex.
I wonder if some more examples for changing agenda files when
executing custom commands would be helpful.
Anyone else who wants to see Agenden at home from different sets of
agenda files?
I think a good way is also to keep the list of agenda files in a file, like
~/.agenda_files_home and ~/.agenda_files_work.
The you can have different sets of files, and switch by making
org-agenda-files
(defun org-my-toggle-agenda-file-set ()
(interactive)
(if (equal org-agenda-files "~/.agenda_files_work")
(setq org-agenda-files "~/.agenda_files_home")
(setq org-agenda-files "~/.agenda_files_work"))
(message "Using %s" org-agenda-files))

Hi all,
I found the problem. I used "org-agenda-directory" instead of org-agenda-files.
Not recognising that this variable doesn't seem to exist (did it ever exist?)
I assumed I can use it to indicate the org files folder.
With org-agenda-files everything works perfectly.
I now have about 48 custom commands (partly of course hierarchical) and with
dynamically changing the set of org files I really feel I have control over my
todos!
I am very happy with org!
Thank you both!
Rainer

Rainer,
I came across the variable org-finalize-agenda-hook, which is "run
just before displaying an agenda buffer."
So, maybe something like this in your configuration will work:
(defun rs-reset-agenda-files ()
"Set org-agenda-files to my default values"
(interactive)
(setq org-agenda-files ; the following are examples, of course
(quote
("~/org/PUBLIK/work1.org"
"~/org/PUBLIK/work2.org"
"~/org/PUBLIK/work3.org"
(add-hook 'org-finalize-agenda-hook 'rs-reset-agenda-files)
What I think might then happen is that, after you run agenda custom
command kP, the variable org-agenda-files will be reset to the default
value.
Maybe?
