Doing everything asynchronously is not always desired. Consider, for example, #+begin_src bash echo "Contents" > /tmp/tmpfile #+end_src bash #+begin_src bash cat /tmp/tmpfile # I must run after /tmp/tmpfile is created! #+end_src Also, using "print" statements to create output delimiters might sometimes be tricky. If I remember correctly Ruby repl is asynchronous and sometimes produces unexpected artefacts when you send multiple commands in quick succession. The commands may be executed in different order than you may expect. -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode contributor, Learn more about Org mode at <https://orgmode.org/>.
