Seems to me that the variable is not effective at all at this point in time:
it still has to be connected up and wired in. Here's what I see:
Org-mode version 7.01trans (release_7.01h.112.g13a0)
GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.14.4) of 2010-05-17 on
gamaville.dokosmarshall.org
org-babel-execute-src-block calls org-babel-confirm-evaluate in the
following context:
(let (...
(evaluation-confirmed (org-babel-confirm-evaluate info))
...)
...
but evaluation-confirmed is not used anywhere. In fact, there is a comment
on the line above:
;; note the `evaluation-confirmed' variable is currently not
;; used, but could be used later to avoid the need for
;; chaining confirmations
(evaluation-confirmed (org-babel-confirm-evaluate info))
but that's the *only* place where org-babel-confirm-evaluate is called,
so I don't think the function (or the variable that Eric is trying to
set) has any effect at all. I haven't chased things through to the C-c C-c
stage that Eric mentions, so I'm not sure what causes that.
Am I missing something?
Thanks,
Nick
