Hello,
A question came up on Stack Exchange asking about less-verbose ways to
indicate code blocks:
http://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/26163/one-liner-org-source-tangle
I suggested using the inline format, e.g., 'src_perl{set $variable =
1;}'. However, this is ignored when tangling the org file into a source
file.
The manual indicates that blocks and inline code are treated the same:
http://orgmode.org/manual/Structure-of-code-blocks.html
Is this a bug in the documentation? From the documentation, I expect
inline code to be tangled the same as a code block, at least when
appropriate `tangle` options are set in the header.
Here's a short example file illustrating the problem:
+----
* Taking notes
:PROPERTIES:
:tangle: whatever.R
:comments: org
:END:
R commands
#+BEGIN_SRC R
var1 <- 1
#+END_SRC
And here's an inline command: src_R{var2 <- 2}.
Perl unset command (just making it up... :P)
#+BEGIN_SRC R
rm(list = c("var1", "var2"))
#+END_SRC
And some more text.
+----
Tangling this will insert the two code blocks into the tangled file, but
the inline code gets treated as regular text, and is converted into a
comment.
Am I doing something wrong, or could the documentation be clarified on
this point?
Best,
Tyler
