Since a year or so I am using org-mode ever more intensively. Among
other
things, I use it to track my training in pediatric medicine. I keep
a sort
of combined diary and planner of events, courses and work schedules
in a
file called arbete.org, which tracks the four years since I started
until
as far into the future as there are concrete plans. Sometimes I like
to
discuss my progress with someone, and then I usually make an html
export of
the timeline in this file. The timeline is becoming rather long, but
I do
not feel it would make sense to divide it into several files since
it is a
logical compartment of life for me.
Is it possible to limit the timeline (or perhaps a custom agenda
view) to a
specific date range, for instance a year or "the fall of 2011"? I
have
searched the manual and FAQs but have found nothing that addresses
this. Perhaps this reflects my misuse of org-mode, but on the other
hand it
does seem a useful feature (which probably means it exists but
somehow
eludes me).
You can set `org-agenda-span' within a custom agenda view.
See this example:
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
'((" " "Next 10 days" agenda "List of rendez-vous for the next
10 days"
((org-agenda-span 10)))))
Hope this helps,
