Re: [O] TODO items which do not appear in the agenda?

[Tory S. Anderson]

I'm a little confused; for me, by default, TODO items do NOT 
appear in the agenda. They only appear if connected to a deadline, 
date, or schedule item. I have files of hundreds of TODO items 
that don't appear in agenda unless I give them a date. I think 
this is the default behavior.
