Here is an example, in org file #+name: test #+begin_src emacs-lisp :var a :results silent a #+end_src Now, if I execute (org-sbe "test" (a "123°34'23.34\"otherthing")) it would say: Reference 123°34'23.34"otherthing not found and (org-sbe "test" (a $"123°34'23.34\"otherthing")) would result 123°34'23.34 | | | | zhyznd@163.com | ---- Replied Message ---- | From | Ihor Radchenko | | Date | 2/22/2023 21:57 | | To | 赵一宇 | | Cc | mick.dauer@gmail.com , orgmode@tec.tecosaur.net , emacs-orgmode@gnu.org | | Subject | Re: BUG: org-sbe not working anymore: Format specifier doesn’t match argument type | 赵一宇 writes: However, I wanna figure out if another change would somehow fix another problem, when in the (var value) pair, the value contains quotation marks, for example 123°34'23.34", the assignment would fail.
