Hi Eli,
thank You for the answer.

I think not. IMHO: process-file is counterpart to call-process, but not
to call-process-region.

You can copy the region to the remote or local temporary file
yourself, it's not hard.  (Not sure if moving large amounts of stuff
via the net makes sense, though, so maybe reconsider your design.)

universal call-process-region for both the local and remote usages - confusion

[vibrys]

Hallo Emacs users

I'm planning to adapt the emacs module to work remote locations. It 
heavily uses call-process-region.

AFAIK: call-process-region does not work for remote site.

What is the tramp-aware replacement for it?

I found org-babel-tramp-handle-call-process-region to be the one?
But it is not in emacs trunk.
Why? I mean, is it some other legal function? Is there something wrong 
with org-babel-* one, os that is wasn't added to trunk?

regards,

Vi

I think you want process-file.
