I've renamed the proposed feature "pending contents", that is, some contents that something will update *later*. With that feature, source code blocks and dynamic blocks can be made asynchronous … and more! I've publish the proposed changes as a branch. You can fecth that branch there: ┌──── │ repo: https://framagit.org/brubar/org-mode-mirror │ branch: bba-pending-contents └──── The file [my-async-tests.org] describes the proposed changes, its implementation and contains examples to play with it (shell, python, ruby, results{append,prepend,silent}, inline blocks, multithreading, dynamic asynchronous blocks, source codes that depend on other blocks {post, stdin}, etc.). I've tried to fully describe the feature in the new section "Pending contents", in the file `lisp/org-macs.el'. Testing it in a bare Emacs should now work (I'm using 30.0.50). *DO NOT TEST* in your production Emacs: this is *alpha* software and it hooks itself deeply into Emacs (kill hooks), and (only when trying the multithread examples) uses thread mutexes&locks. Here is a simple recipe to test the proposed "pending contents" feature: ┌──── │ git clone -b bba-pending-contents https://framagit.org/brubar/org-mode-mirror │ cd org-mode-mirror │ make compile │ cd scratch/bba-pending-contents/ │ emacs -q -L ../../lisp my-async-tests.org └──── Thanks you all for your previous comments. I hope I've addressed most of them. Comments, critiques, ideas, corrections are most welcome. Thanks, Bruno [my-async-tests.org] <https://framagit.org/brubar/org-mode-mirror/-/tree/bba-pending-contents/scratch/bba-pending-contents/my-async-tests.org>
