Org mode version 9.2.5 (release_9.2.5-494-g4848b8 @ 
/usr/local/share/org-mode/lisp/)
GNU Emacs 27.0.50 (build 59, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.10) 
of 2019-08-22

ECM

#+begin_src sh :file test.rec
cat << EOF
# -*- mode: rec -*-

%rec: somerecord

Account: something
Amount: 0.00

#### end of file
EOF

#+end_src

I expect that when I execute the above code block that

	1. An external file test.rec is produced with contents

	# -*- mode: rec -*-

	%rec: somerecord

	Account: something
	Amount: 0.00

	#### end of file

  and

	2. A link to that file is placed below the source code block

Instead all I get is a table and no external file is created

#+RESULTS:
| #     |   -*- | mode: | rec | -*- |
| %rec: | somerecord | | | |
| Account: | sometyhing | | | |
| Amount: | 0.0 | | | |
| #### | end | of | file | |

I reported this earlier but my subject line was not correct.

You probably need to specify that the output is a file, which is not the
default for "sh" language. You may want to add ":results file" to the
header of the source block.

Thank you, Nicolas. That solved it.

Now a "just curious," comment and question:

I had a few files that used the ECM source code block, just many more 
entries in each. The last time that I evaluated any of them was last 
October and it produced the results I expected, i.e. I did not specify 
":results file"

So, up until October was I just lucky or did something change in Org 
that affected the sh language?

Regards,

Charlie Millar

It changed between Org 9.2 and Org 9.3, for every language. There is an
ORG-NEWS entry about it, namely:

  *** ~:file~ header argument no longer assume "file" ~:results~

Thank you. I read that entry and others concerning ;file prior to
posting and it did not penetrate my thick skull.
