Re: [O] [babel] Call lines with "their own" results

[Eric Schulte]

Hi Andreas,

Currently call the behavior you mention below, in which call line
results are named by their arguments and are not unique, is the
implemented behavior.  I agree that it would be preferable to switch to
a system in which each call line was given it's own results, however I
am not able to make this change right now (although it is on my TODO
list).

I think for now a workaround like the one you suggest below (or maybe
using an "id" header argument) is probably your best bet.

Best,
