[O] eval code snippet before tangling config file
Hi, I'm trying to evaluate a line of shell code and put its output into a snippet that will be tangled to a file. My best attempt so far: #+NAME: hostname #+BEGIN_SRC sh hostname -s #+END_SRC #+BEGIN_SRC conf :tangle /usr/local/etc/leafnode/config :noweb tangle expire = 20 server = news.gmane.org initialfetch = 100 hostname = <>.superloopy.io #+END_SRC However the result of that tangle includes the shell snippet in verbatim: #+RESULTS: : expire = 20 : server = news.gmane.org : initialfetch = 100 : hostname = hostname -s.superloopy.io I suspect this is because it will be executed in the context of "conf" mode, which does not really have an execution mode. Syntax highlighting etc works fine, however. I could change to make a shell script to write the config, but it's not as nice really. PS: this is an improvement to my existing setup of Leafnode on OS X, if anybody's interested: http://github.com/stig/dot-files/tree/master/Leafnode.org Stig
