Subject: [babel] Idiomatic handling of quotes
Date: Thu, 17 Dec 2009 10:15:06 -1000	[thread overview]

Aloha all,

In the example below, note that the R representation of the directory  
listing escapes the quotes in the original and encloses it all in a  
second set of quotes, e.g. "\"theta-1.csv\"".

This must come up a lot.  Is there an idiomatic way to change  
"\"theta-1.csv\"" to "theta-1.csv" so that it could be assigned to x  
and the following statement would yield a valid path?

afile <- paste("r/",x,sep="")

I'm aware the answer might be R code, but it is to tightly tied to org- 
babel I figure it makes sense to ask the question here.

All the best,
Tom

--------------- Example -------------------
*** Dated events
#+srcname: thetas()
#+begin_src shell
cd r && ls theta*
#+end_src

#+results: thetas
| "theta-1.csv" |
| "theta-2.csv" |
...

#+srcname: test-list(x = thetas)
#+begin_src R :session
   str(x)
   x
#+end_src

#+results: test-list
| "theta-1.csv" |
| "theta-2.csv" |
...

tdye> str(x)
'data.frame':	8 obs. of  1 variable:
  $ V1: chr  "\"theta-1.csv\"" "\"theta-2.csv\"" "\"theta-3.csv\""  
"\"theta-4.csv\"" ...
