[Orgmode] two custom agenda view questions

[Michael Gilbert]

Hi --

Still too much of a newbie to figure this out on my own. I get lost in  
the Lisp still.

(1) I want to define a custom agenda view that displays only those  
tasks that have today as a deadline or are past-due. Since many of my  
tasks also have scheduled timestamps, sometimes these end up being the  
same day. It looks to me as if they will be left out if I skip  
scheduled items, even if they also have a current deadline. How can I  
finesse this?

(2) Eventually, I want to create a DONE log of copies of items as they  
get finished, with contextual data retained. But for right now, all I  
want is to be able to switch to an agenda view of tasks that were  
complete today. I've tried a few ideas that seemed like low-hanging  
fruit here, but no luck.

Anyone willing to help out with these? Thank you so much!
