Hi,
I'd like to propose a new universal argument functionality for
org-babel-mark-block: it should mark the block content (as without
universal argument) and the whole block definition as well.
Current behavior with and without universal argument:
#+NAME: my-example
#+BEGIN_SRC python
print('hello world!') <-- marked
#+END_SRC
Proposed behavior:
Without universal argument:
#+NAME: my-example
#+BEGIN_SRC python
print('hello world!') <-- marked
#+END_SRC
With universal argument:
#+NAME: my-example <-- marked
#+BEGIN_SRC python <-- marked
print('hello world!') <-- marked
#+END_SRC <-- marked
Personal background/motivation:
I often add blocks of all kind to list items:
- foobar
#+BEGIN_SRC python
print('hello world!') <-- marked
#+END_SRC
This enables me to collapse and expand the list item together with
the block.
So far, my process of adding a block to a list item was:
- create list item
- press RET (which goes to column 1, not the indented list column)
- create the block (by using custom yankpad snippets, simulating the
outdated quick templates(?) with, e.g., <s + TAB for SRC block.
- manually select the whole block -> THIS should be addressed
here
- move block to the right to match the desired column
- so far, I'm using "C-x r t SPC SPC RET" but I should switch to
indent-rigidly which I covered on
