You don't have to write it on each code block; you may set it globally, per file, per headline, etc. See https://orgmode.org/manual/Using-Header-Arguments.html. > not to mention tools like `pandoc` also produce example blocks from > markdown source blocks. My version of pandoc generates org source blocks from markdown code blocks (pandoc 3.1.11.1). I'm not sure you'll get a better answer than this SE answer: https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/76466/how-do-i-get-syntax-highlighting-in-example-blocks-when-exporting-org-mode-to-ht I.e. "begin_example" is just not designed for source blocks. It may have worked by chance before. Hoping this helps, Bruno
