Subject: [PATCH] org.el: Added a new interactive function which inserts a code block
Date: Tue, 8 May 2012 21:19:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120508211909.7e532ba3@asmara> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 656 bytes --]

Hello,

I do not always use code blocks in org-mode, but when I do, I have
forgotten the syntax :-). In order to prevent that situation I wrote a
little function which is similar to org-insert-link. I called that
function org-insert-code-block. This function reads the language per
minibuffer in and supports completion. It only allows languages which
are loaded via org-babel-load-languages.

Is this function also useful to others? I'm not a long-time Emacs lisp
hacker, so any comment is welcome. Has anyone an idea for a reasonable
keybinding for org-insert-code-block which is not already taken by
org-mode?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Florian
