Re: [Orgmode] Problem with org-batch-agenda

[Mark Elston]

Carsten,

Thanks.  The quoting was the problem.  I changed the line from what
I had below to:

  c:\emacs-22.3\bin\emacs.exe -batch -l ~/_emacs_org -eval \
    "(org-batch-agenda \"S\")"

and it now works like I expect.

Perhaps there should be somewhere to deal with some of these platform
specific issues so we don't run into them multiple times...
