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 "Thomas S.
