Hi Max,
This is one bit of literate programming I haven't mastered myself yet. I
generally have code blocks and print results, and then manually re-enter them
in the paragraph below. I would like what you are looking for. The best
solution I have, which I don't use often, is to use sessions and inline code.

For example, to insert the number three I could do the following, if a = 1 and
b = 2, defined previously in session "foo": src_octave[:session foo]{a+b}
{{{results(=3=)}}}
I've been thinking about other ways to achieve this... perhaps my code blocks
update a table. That table might be included in the text for the reader. Then
one code session reads it all in, so I have access to all results in one
session and can use them in the text...
-k.
