[O] how to show deadlines in global to-do list?

Hi,

Apologies if this is a common question -- I did do some google
searching, but didn't find a straightforward answer and the agenda
options are too complex for me to figure out quickly -- I'm too busy
to devote a couple of hours figuring out the right way.

I like the out-of-the-box to-do list, except one thing: I would like
to see the items' deadlines. The weekly agenda view shows the
deadlines, but I need a view where I can see *only* to-do items and
their deadlines.

I read in the manual about creating custom agenda views, and I see a
lot about defining custom searches, but it isn't obvious (to me) how
to customize the display of an existing search. I also checked M-x
customize-group for agenda options, to do display options and line
format, but I don't see anything self-evident. (I don't want to make a
custom time-grid view searching only todos: I want the todos displayed
in *priority* order, just, if there's a deadline, show it.)

I'm quite busy and I have approximately 5 more minutes to devote to
this, so if somebody could send me a simple way to add deadlines to
the to-do list, I'd be much obliged. Thanks.

James
