Is anyone aware of an org-sort function / modification that can refile / organize a group of TODO so that it sorts them by three (3) criteria: first sort by due date, second sort by priority, and third sort by by title of the task?
EDIT: If anyone can please help me to modify this so that undated TODO are sorted last, that would be greatly appreciated -- at the present time, undated TODO are not being sorted:
;; multiple sort
(defun org-sort-multi (&rest sort-types)
"Multiple sorts on a certain level of an outline tree, or plain list items.
SORT-TYPES is a list where each entry is either a character or a
cons pair (BOOL . CHAR), where BOOL is whether or not to sort
case-sensitively, and CHAR is one of the characters defined in
`org-sort-entries-or-items'. Entries are applied in back to
front order.
Example: To sort first by TODO status, then by priority, then by
date, then alphabetically (case-sensitive) use the following
call:
(org-sort-multi '(?d ?p ?t (t . ?a)))"
(interactive)
(dolist (x (nreverse sort-types))
(when (char-valid-p x)
(setq x (cons nil x)))
(condition-case nil
(org-sort-entries (car x) (cdr x))
(error nil))))
;; sort current level
(defun lawlist-sort (&rest sort-types)
"Sort the current org level.

(interactive)
(when (equal mode-name "Org")
(let ((sort-types (or sort-types
(if (or (org-entry-get nil "TODO")
(org-entry-get nil "PRIORITY"))
'(?d ?t ?p) ;; date, time, priority
'((nil . ?a))))))
(save-excursion
(outline-up-heading 1)
(let ((start (point))
end)
(while (and (not (bobp)) (not (eobp)) (<= (point) start))
(condition-case nil
(outline-forward-same-level 1)
(error (outline-up-heading 1))))
(unless (> (point) start)
(goto-char (point-max)))
(setq end (point))
(goto-char start)
(apply 'org-sort-multi sort-types)
(goto-char end)
(when (eobp)
(forward-line -1))
(when (looking-at "^\\s-*$")
;; (delete-line)
