Thanks for your advice, and thanks too for org-element!
I can't believe that no one else needs a function to goto a heading, and
I am sure to need it again myself so did this:
(require 'org-element)
(defun my-goto-heading(file heading-text)
"Visit file `file' and goto headline `heading-text'"
(find-file file)
(org-element-map (org-element-parse-buffer 'headline) 'headline
(lambda (x)
(if (string= (org-element-property :raw-value x)
heading-text)
(goto-char (org-element-property :begin x))
nil))
nil t)) ;; stop at first find
and use it like this, so that whenever I need to remind myself of what
to do and how to do it I press (M-x gtd) :
(defun gtd()
(interactive)
(my-goto-heading "~/org/org/gtd.org" "My workflow")
(reposition-window)
(org-show-entry)
(org-show-subtree)
(org-agenda-list))
