Re: [babel] noweb for :sessions?

["Eric Schulte" <schulte.eric@gmail.com>]

Hi Tom,

That is an interesting proposal, and surprisingly simple to implement.
Please pull the latest version of Org-mode, and you will find that there
is now a :noweb header argument available for source-code blocks which
has the effect of expanding noweb references before source-block
evaluation (as you suggested below).  So for example the following
works.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+srcname: noweb-example
#+begin_src ruby 
  a = 28
#+end_src

#+begin_src ruby :noweb
  # <<noweb-example>>
  a + 4
#+end_src

#+resname:
: 32
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Does this satisfy the behavior you were suggesting?

Thanks for the idea! -- Eric
