If Carsten implements this, I think all the search facilities in Org
will need a bit of uniformization/clarification.
Admittedly the search functions are one of the areas that
demonstrate most clearly how Org-mode has grown and evolved, adding
little things. Could use a complete re-write, but there is no
time for this.
For now we have:
| key | function | knows about | C-u |
|---------+----------------------+----------------+------------------|
| C-c / | org-occur | regexp | |
| C-c \ | org-tags-sparse-tree | tags, and more | restrict to TODO |
| C-c C-v | org-show-todo-tree | todo keywords | ask for keyword |
A few ideas about this:
1. I tend to use C-c \ a lot than C-c / -- but I find the C-c / key
much
more convenient. I guess it's far too late to switch, but still.
I guess you use a French keyboard? On mine both are equally easily
accessed.
2. AFAIK org-tags-sparse-tree is more powerful than org-show-todo-tree.
If we add the possibility to build interactive queries, it will
definitely become *the* universal search interface for Org.
That is true, but newbies will start with simple things, and it
is good to have simple commands to start off.
Thanks for the list of search options, a good start.
