I bet because ":results output" in Emacs Lisp is only interpreted as a string. You're better off just returning a list with something like the following. #+begin_src emacs-lisp :results output table (let (txts) (with-current-buffer "*Messages*" (goto-char (point-min)) (while (re-search-forward "^Retrieving newsgroup: \\(.+\\)" nil t) (push (match-string 1) txts))) txts) #+end_src -- Eric Schulte https://cs.unm.edu/~eschulte PGP: 0x614CA05D
