Hi John,
you should rename it org-babel-async-execute:clojure, and adapt it to run clojure.
Yes
I wrote the function in the org-file that is that post, and executed the code block (C-c C-c) which "registers" the function for that instance of emacs.
I am not sure I understand here. Once you execute the elisp block with that function, the function becomes defined for that instance. But when you execute your other block, the example python block using C-c C-c, how does org-mode knows to use "org-babel-async-execute:python" instead of "org-babel-execute:python"??
You put the cursor in the block, and then call it using M-x?
Later you could put it in an init file that is loaded when Emacs starts. and use M-x to call it. Once I added an :async option to the header args to make C-c C-c execute it, but until it works the way you want with M-x that is just convenience ;)
Yes, this is that :async option that would be great and necessary once it works using M-x :)
How can this be done? (Is there an extension mechanism in org-mode for that, or it needs to hack the core code?)
Thanks, Fred
