I think this is a followup from this mail: https://orgmode.org/list/87zgxc42qg....@gmail.com/ wherein Jeremie states: > The current patch have been tested for remote connections as well and > AFAIK, nothing breaks. > > But I'm afraid that the graphical output is broken and has long been > even before the path. The test for graphical output is compromised and > does not do the right test. I will suggest new ones. So I think it's to do with graphical outputs in remote R sessions. However, I tested Jeremie's example on latest org master and it also worked fine for me, also on remote sessions. Jeremie, could you clarify the issue this fixes? > +(defun org-babel-output-link-path:R (params) > + "format org-link to file from PARAMS" > + > + (format "[[file:%s]]" (concat (cdr (assq :dir params)) > + "/" > + (cdr (assq :file params))))) Rather than concat, I think it is better to use expand-file-name, and also call file-name-as-directory on the directory component. Stylistically, I don't think there should be a blank line between the docstring and the code. The docstring should also start with a capital letter and end with a period. > + (setq out-file-path (concat > + (replace-regexp-in-string "/ssh:.*?:" "" (cdr > (assq :dir params))) > + "/" > + out-file)) Use org-babel-process-file-name instead of replace-regexp-in-string to get the local path of the file. > - Remove second the need for a second file parameter This would indeed be nice. The requirement for a second file parameter was added in Org 9.3 to support the use case in this thread: https://orgmode.org/list/3ac2f42a-8ff2-1464-fa36-451e2ef0e...@pressure.to/ But this syntax is annoyingly verbose for ob-R users, and also broke lots of ob-R examples prior to Org 9.3. A simple fix might be to have the "graphics" flag implicitly add the "file" flag as well. But we would need to first check that this doesn't break other use cases. > Subject: [PATCH 1/4] ob-R.el: Remove redundant argument to function I think it would be better to squash these changes into a single commit.
