Priority is the "[#A]" type cookie in the header of a task. A user-defined property that is a meaning of "priority" is not recognized by standard Org as a PRIORITY. You could write some Elisp to incorporate it into Org agendas with user-defined sorting functions. -- David Masterson

Whoa. Interesting writing style. Info is pretty good, but lacks images to provide visual backing to the description. Also, some package writers write their docs for HTML (with images) and it doesn't quite come out write in Info. > note tht the word priority is used in 2 senses. t hre is a kind of > defult agend sorting that has its own calcualted priority and then > ther eare the priority cookies. i don't use the calculated priority > --- there is custom sorting avail via a var. maybe that is what you > are asking for ad if so you'd have to write a bit of lisp, which i > can't help you with but others might be able to. Hmm. I'll have to look at calculated priority. Thanks -- David Masterson
Re: How to create a priority sorted list of tasks agenda ?
pardon my scattershot emails. info and default value are suggesting that if you want the calculated priority, you can use the sorting stratgegy, but that is default, within category-keep, so you might be asking for the priority cookies.

Re: How to create a priority sorted list of tasks agenda ?
ok i was completely wrong depending on which meaning of priority you want. in the docstring in my old version of org, org-agenda-sorting-strategy is ambiguous on which one it means, so you might or might not need user-defined.

Re: How to create a priority sorted list of tasks agenda ?
(info "(org) Presentation and Sorting") emacs docs and info are both rather good. i used to dislike info for years and catted it like a manpage but only a few commmand like u ret l r are needed. note tht the word priority is used in 2 senses. t hre is a kind of defult agend sorting that has its own calcualted priority and then ther eare the priority cookies. i don't use the calculated priority --- there is custom sorting avail via a var. maybe that is what you are asking for ad if so you'd have to write a bit of lisp, which i can't help you with but others might be able to.

How to create a priority sorted list of tasks agenda ?
This seems like a typical request, but I don't readily see in the manual. I was thinking org-sort on an agenda, but it doesn't seem to do that. Any hints? -- David Masterson
