Ah, yes, I didn't notice the existence of org-babel-switch-to-session. It is indeed much cleaner that my patch :-) The "features" I would miss compared top my quick and dirty-function is the fact that the source code buffer is displayed above the session one (I really don't like having the session above), the fact that when I quit the source code editing, the session buffer is closed too, and the ability to keep org file buffer open with the source and the session ones. I can reproduce the behavios I was looking for with the following modifications to your function. But this is another quick and dirty hack, and I can't say if it cuold meet the needs of others : (defun dan/org-babel-switch-to-code-with-session (&optional arg keep-org) "Switch to code edit buffer and display session. If keep-org is non nil, keep the org file buffer open, too." (interactive "P") (let ((info (org-babel-get-src-block-info))) (org-edit-src-code) (if keep-org (split-window-vertically) (delete-other-windows)) (save-excursion (org-babel-switch-to-session arg info)) (other-window -1))) I think I'll stick with this function for the moment. > Note that o-b-load-session additionally loads the body of the block into > the session; and that switch-session, if called with a prefix arg, > assigns variables from the header args in the session[1]. These are > bound to M-down and M-up when on a code block. Ah yes, didn't know these ones either... > Oh, and also... org-babel-switch-to-session and org-babel-load-session > use the emacs function pop-to-buffer.

See > the documentation for things like pop-to-buffer, pop-up-windows, > split-window-sensibly, special-display-buffer-names, etc. Yes, I feel I have some more customization opportunities lying in these documentation pages...
