Extending ob-plantuml keywords

Extending ob-plantuml keywords

Hi,

On a casual inspection, it appears that ob-plantuml hardcodes the
plantuml keywords @startuml/@enduml around the source block.

There are at least a couple of other keywords that can be used
(@startsalt and @startmindmap).

I’m tempted to hack at obj-plantuml a bit to support keyword selection
somehow. Before I do that, has anyone else already done it?

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm

Not that I am aware of; I've not needed the other @start options but
they are potentially very useful so it would be good to support them.

On closer inspection, I see that Org Mode 9.2.6 supports alternate
@start/@end pairs in plantuml. Rather than using a keyword on
#+BEGIN_SRC, it simply checks for @start… at the beginning of the
body.

That’s good enough, I think.
