Hello, I’ve read through most of the docs that turn up with the obvious web searches and I haven’t been able to figure this out. However, it seems like it should be possible…
I’m quite pleased with how babel and noweb can be used to write
“literate programs” for configuration files and scripts.
Cross references between code blocks with <<noweb-references>> work
just fine. What I’d like, but can’t work out, is how to refer to, for
example, a configuration value inline. Something like this:
In order to engage the flux capacitor, you must set the
chronometer dial to ~<<required_date>>~.
#+begin_src conf :noweb yes
date: <<required_date>>
#+end_src
I don’t care how or where “required_date” is defined, I just want the
ability to refer to it in the documentation and in code blocks.
Have I overlooked something obvious?
Be seeing you,
norm
