Hi knubee,
As long as your file is in org-mode that should work fine. You can run
an agenda just on the current file in multiple ways:
C-c a 1 m
will run the tags match command on the current file only
If you want to use multiple agenda commands you can enable the agenda
restriction lock as follows
- on the first line of an org-mode file (before the first heading) do
C-c C-x <
You do this on a #+STARTUP: line or on a blank line before the first
heading
All subsequent agenda commands will only consider this one file until
you remove the restriction lock with C-c C-x >
HTH,
Bernt
