Eric (& Tom as well), This works like a charm! I should have guessed that org-babel would be able to come to the rescue :-) Many thanks. Being able to embed such arbitrary programming languages etc is changing my whole workflow even more than org-mode itself did. A typical org file of mine these days seems always to include latex, shell commands and maxima code, and I can now add gnuplot to this set. Interestingly, 15 years on, org-mode &co. are accomplishing what the CMU folk wanted to do with their Andrew project, specifically their =ez= editor. It used to be that I hated leaving emacs to do anything; now it's getting to the point that I hate even leaving org-mode! I wonder if I can embed wanderlust within org-mode... ;-) Thanks again, eric _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
