[Orgmode] RE: [babel] evaluating shell commands for side effect

Another question related to using babel, shell commands, in a session:

When I try to export a .org file with "begin_src sh :session *shell* :exports 
code" blocks, I'm prompted whether I want to evaluate the code.  However, I 
thought ":exports code" would avoid evaluation on export (and that :session is 
only about evaluation).

Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

Subject: [Orgmode] [babel] evaluating shell commands for side effect

I'm writing "how to" documents that include sequences of shell commands, such 
as: 

#+begin_src sh :session *shell*
 cd /home/sullivan/myproj/src
 ./configure --prefix /home/sullivan/myproj/install
 make
 make test
#+end_src

and simply want C-c C-c to send the lines, one at a time, to the inferior shell 
process. That is, I want readers to read along, and then execute the code as 
needed.

Currently, it never returns (until C-g).  It might be related to the issues 
discussed last November, 
        http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2009-11/msg01166.html
I have the latest git version of org mode, and I think I've set 
comint-prompt-regexp correctly.

So: I don't want to filter the output, I don't want to collect the results - 
just send the commands and go.

Looking at ob-sh.el/org-babel-sh-evaluate, I can't figure out what the Right 
Thing to do is.  Appended is a cheap hack that checks for "ignore" as a results 
string (e.g. #+begin_src sh :session *shell* :results ignore) and sends the 
lines one at a time to the inferior shell buffer.  But I suspect there's a more 
straightforward way to do it.

Thoughts?
Thanks.
