Re: [Orgmode] [babel] Painless integration of source blocks with language

[Seth Burleigh]

I would just like to throw in a quick idea.

The easiest way to support noweb tangling is to get org-babel-tangle to create nested tags and change detangle to take these into account.

for example, i have the forex_user source block that is tangled.

;; [[file:~/Dropbox/.rep/clj-forex/clj-forex.org::*User][forex_user]]

my code...

;; [[file:~/Dropbox/.rep/clj-forex/clj-forex.org::*User][embedded_block]]

my embedded code ...

;; embedded_block ends here

;; forex_user ends here

corresponding to a forex_user block of 

#+begin_src

  my code ...

  <<embedded_block>>

#+end_src

This would only work for noweb on separate lines and preferably only when one block is noweb embedded into one other source block, but i believe that this is the most common case anyways. This could be enforced in the detangle/tangle code.

Then, a separate minor mode could make these file: markers invisible and create a colored overlay pattern per source block code. Saving the file would still save the markers, you just wouldnt see them if the minor mode was on.
