Re: [Orgmode] The patch (org-exp-blocks), the question and the bug

[Eric Schulte]

Hi,

I've added an asymptote section to the org-exp-blocks page [1] which
should be published to worg within the next hour or so.  This section
would benefit from an example asymptote block, which I am unable to
provide.

Thanks -- Eric
