Org variables in LaTeX - how?

Org variables in LaTeX - how?

Hi

I must admit, I don't know the inner workings of LaTeX, so this might be impossible, but anyway:

I have the following two variables:


#+PROPERTY: var VER=89
#+PROPERTY: var+ STATE="up-to-date"

I create a file in one code block via sh, named FILE=./../nsa.$VER.$STATE.tar.gz

Now I would likle to attach this file to the pdf:

#+LATEX_HEADER:\\usepackage{attachfile2}
#+BEGIN_LaTeX
  \textattachfile[print=false,color=0.5 0.5 0.5]{"./../nsa.VER.STATE.tar.gz"}{R source files}
#+END_LaTeX

How can I use the variables in a LaTeX block?
Using the ove does obviously not work, but

#+BEGIN_LaTeX
  \textattachfile[print=false,color=0.5 0.5 0.5]{"./../nsa.98.up-to-date.tar.gz"}{R source files}
#+END_LaTeX

does.

So my question: Can I, and if yes how, use org variables in LaTeX code?

Cheers,

Rainer

You should generate latex code with let's say elisp (or some other language)
fragment that will output :results latex

Thanks - good idea. Haven't thought about that.
