These issues were already solved, but thanks. #1 - I had a setq in my emacs that was overriding the customize setting. #2 - Misunderstanding: time-up is not date-and-time, it's only time of day.

In general, it's really hard to digg into an issue without such information, and time is short for everyone :/ Thanks for your understanding, -- Bastien

Question #1 has a stupid answer. I had forgotten to remove another setq for
org-agenda-custom commands later in my .emacs -- so this one is solved now.
Question #2 is open. Is there any way at all to change the sorting of a to-do
list?

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?

[O] Agenda custom command problems
Hi,
Two questions about agenda custom commands.
1. I've defined a few custom agenda commands, but the only one that actually
appears in the agenda dispatcher is 'z'. If I open Emacs and immediately C-h v
org-agenda-custom-commands, it says:
Its value is
(("z" tags-todo "-ExamFdbk"))
But... The following block is one of the arguments to custom-set-variables in
my ~/.emacs. I used the customize interface to create the custom commands.
'(org-agenda-custom-commands (quote (("z" tags-todo "-ExamFdbk" nil) ("1"
"Course-related TODOs" tags-todo
"+AudioClass|Lesson|MyConcert|Workshop11&-Wk11plugs-Wk11Docs" nil) ("2" "Spring
semester TODOs" tags-todo "-Wk11plugs-Wk11Docs" ((org-agenda-files (quote
("~/Documents/xinghai/11-12-spring/semester-spr.org")))
(org-agenda-sorting-strategy (quote (time-up
If I manually execute the entire custom-set-variables block, after that, C-h v
shows the complete value.
Quite funny... it's all there, but Emacs doesn't process it during startup...?
I've never seen that before with any other customize variable. All the other
customize variables are set correctly.
Any ideas how to fix?
2. I would like command "2" to show a subset of the TODOs (based on tags) in
one given file, sorted in order of time stamp. Everything is working except the
sorting: (org-agenda-sorting-strategy '(time-up)) is so far not having any
effect. The TODOs appear in the order of appearance in the file.
I need time stamp order to see at a glance what I need to do today vs tomorrow,
etc.
("2" "Spring semester TODOs" tags-todo "-Wk11plugs-Wk11Docs"
((org-agenda-files
'("~/Documents/xinghai/11-12-spring/semester-spr.org"))
(org-agenda-sorting-strategy
'(time-up
How to make the sorting strategy apply to a tags-todo search?
(Sorry if these are boring questions... I'm not as deep into org as people who
are contributing emacs-lisp on list :) These are just things that seem like
they should be working, according to the documentation, but they aren't.)
