Re: [O] cleaning all the #+results from an org document

[Torsten Wagner]

Hi,

but there is one interesting aspect missing. If I want to evaluate the 
blocks and see the results but e.g.

a) send it to someone without the results (to let him create his own)
b) archive them without having possible huge amount of lines of results 
which can be reproduced any time by executing the block again.
c) to delete all the old results and start "fresh"

A function to remove all results might become handy.
Sometimes I find it quite difficult to see if a source-code block 
execute at all and if the results are "up-to-date" or still rather old 
results. Sure there is the message in the mini-buffer but its quickly 
overlooked or removed by a key-press.

Actually, I would prefer that "old" results are deleted at the very 
first step, then the source code block should be executed and finally 
results are printed again. Its simply to dangerous to overlook that some 
results might not be updated after all because something might went 
silently wrong within the execution.

Another idea would be to add a timestamp making the last time of 
successful execution clear, which might be nice for many different other 
reasons.

#+results: [2011-07-28 Thu 21:15] ;; huh, no seconds in org-mode ?!
