Re: [O] Org Agenda - revert all agenda files?

Dear all, 

Thanks for your kind reply! Sorry that I didn't have chance to check till now. 

OKay, I added the function:

(defun sx-org-revert-agenda-buffers ()
  (interactive)
  (mapcar
   (lambda (file)
     (let ((revert-without-query '(".*\.org$")))
       (find-file file)
       (revert-buffer)))
   (org-agenda-files t)))

It works ! Thanks a lot!

Xin

Thanks - I forgot all about that.

Yes, I thought about that and decided it wasn't worth worrying about.
As Kernighan and Plauger say: first get it right, then make it fast; and
as we just saw, it wasn't right :-). But for typical setups - a few
files or a few dozen files - I don't think it's going to make much
difference. OTOH, if one has thousands of agenda files, then one
probably has much worse problems than this.



Uhhh, yes, indeed!
