Subject: [Babel][Bug] Inconsistent output from babel function depending on how called
Date: Thu, 26 May 2011 11:37:33 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <BANLkTi=H9tasSwrPy6+JkSjeUz-J_DJtgw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I'd like to call a simple babel code block to generate org-code
If I define a list thusly:
#+results: list1
- foo
- bar
Then I define a code block thusly, and execute it by C-c C-c on the
"source" line. That yields the desired result: a sequence of headings
under "#+results: print_list".
#+source: print_list(lst=list1)
#+begin_src sh :results output org
for i in $lst; do
echo "* $i"
done
#+end_src
#+results: print_list
#+BEGIN_ORG
* foo
* bar
#+END_ORG
Now I want to reuse the code block to generate other sequences of
headings. But even if I call it with the *same* list, instead of the
desired headings, I get a literal, as below.
#+call: print_list(lst=list1)
#+results: print_list(lst=list1)
: * foo
: * bar
I think this qualifies as a bug---surely the method of calling the
code block shouldn't affect the output?
Thoughts, patches, or work-arounds welcomed!
Thanks,
-Ethan
