Chuck,
thanks. (i'm not surprised at an e-lisp suggestion from you! :)
i worry about accidental modification of the base case results during
the chaos of development. it occurs to me (reading through
(org-babel-ref-resolve)) to keep my base case source blocks marked with
[:results silent], which should prevent accidental modification. (*)
then, i would change [:results silent] to, e.g., [:results silentx], in
the base case source blocks whenever i wanted to re-create those
results.
for, e.g., inspecting the results when things differ, it would be nice
to stay in the language of the rest of the code. but i suspect i'll be
able to do some e-lisp magic on the RHS of a :var, e.g., crudely
: #+begin_src R :var basecaseresults=(org-babel-read-named-result
"testcountsdecompose")
i'll play around with it. (i suspect i'll be motivated to use an e-lisp
macro, to eliminate the quotes, for example.)
again, thanks.
cheers, Greg
(*) this relies on current org-mode behavior, where
(org-babel-read-result) will return results from a result block from a
source block marked [:results silent]. i have no idea how likely this
behavior is to change in the long run.
