Hello, regarding my previous message: I discovered that, by removing indentation, the export works fine. More specifically, the following snippet produces the error: %--------- snippet ----------% ** CGI - producing output - Example in shell script: #+BEGIN_SRC bash echo "content-type: text/html" echo echo "" echo "" echo "" echo "it is "`date`"" echo "" echo "" #+END_SRC %--------- snippet ----------% %--------- Error ----------% [...] org-babel-exp process emacs-lisp at line 16... org-babel-exp process html at line 114... org-babel-exp process html at line 164... org-babel-exp process bash at line 270... byte-code: Invalid search bound (wrong side of point) %--------- Error ----------% The following snippet *does not* produce the error %--------- snippet ----------% ** CGI - producing output - Example in shell script: #+BEGIN_SRC bash echo "content-type: text/html" echo echo "" echo "" echo "" echo "it is "`date`"" echo "" echo "" #+END_SRC %--------- snippet ----------% I cannot easily reproduce this behaviour outside of my complex file. I tried on a simplified version containing only the snippet, and there indentation makes no difference. Unfortunately, I do not have time now to continue my investigation (I have to prepare my slides for tomorrow), however I am available to provide more information if necessary.
