I realize having taken the bad habit of only using #+begin_src latex blocks even for code that only matters for the LaTeX back-end (such as TikZ decorations). By carefully using the Babel options, it comes down to the same effect/behavior, but, OK, that's NOT the Right Way To Do! Best regards, Seb -- Sebastien Vauban
