It appears that there may be a regression problem with the current tangle/weave process. I used to be able to have a noweb section for the name of the file, another for the version of the file, and then have an autogenerated header section that included those two pieces of information on a single line. Following is an org file snippet of my bug description.
* Bugs ** SOMEDAY org-mode bug with tangle and newlines :BUG: :PROPERTIES: :created: [2011-06-30 Thu 10:00] :ID: e4c992b5-4d35-443b-b34a-0fbda7c66aea :END: :LOGBOOK: - Added on [2011-06-30 Thu 10:00] :END: [2011-06-30 Thu] A regression bug has surfaced in org-mode with the tangle/weave process mangling the following setup: #+begin_src perl :noweb yes :tangle testoutput.pl :shebang #!perl # <<generated-from>> print "Hello world\n"; #+end_src #+srcname: generated-from #+begin_src text :noweb yes Generated from <<file-name>> version <<file-version>>. #+end_src #+srcname: file-name #+begin_src text :noweb yes ATestFile.org #+end_src #+srcname: file-version #+begin_src text :noweb yes 1.2.3.4 #+end_src The last it worked* was sometime in the early 7.4 timeframe. If I get some time, I may do a bisect on it, although others are welcome to do the work required. Timeframe is based on memory, not actual checking, so first a bisect needs to be done to find where it last worked. *** Actual output #+begin_src perl #!perl # Generated from ATestFile.org # Generated from version 1.2.3.4 # Generated from <<file-name>> version . # print "Hello world\n"; #+end_src *** Expected output (or at least similar) #+begin_src perl #!perl # Generated from ATestFile.org version 1.2.3.4. print "Hello world\n"; #+end_src * End of org file
