Thanks very much for your reply Eric.
So the ":results org" feature was there all along.
Searching for "raw" in "org-babel.el" shows it's nicely
explained in the doc-string for "org-babel-insert-result".
(maybe I should have done that sooner)
I also noticed the ":results html" and ":results latex"
options which look very useful.
The latex option encloses the output in a
#+BEGIN_LaTeX ... #+END_LaTeX block, which is nice because
when the source block is re-executed, the new results
replace the old results.
-- Would it be possible to have something like that for "raw"
or "org" mode?
(Maybe that would need a #+BEGIN_org ... #+END_org kind
of construct.)
Also, I've been looking at #+lob: which looks like another
really useful idea, and there are two things I am wondering
about.
-- Is it possible to use #+lob: with ":results output org" ?
-- Is it possible for #+lob: to take a string argument ?
The 4 examples below show things I have tried.
1. and 2. work fine.
3. and 4. are what I can't work out.
Thanks for any ideas you have about these things.

> really useful idea,
Yes, #+lob calls are the canonical way to "hide source code" in
org-babel; with this approach, source blocks are viewed more as function
definitions with arguments than as executable blocks that produce
output, and the #+lob line is used to "call the function" and actually
do something. There have been a few examples on the list recently where
it would make sense to use #+lob. I've fixed a few things related
to #+lob recently and will post some more documentation on Worg soon.

Both these were bugs, which are fixed in my development branch -- they
should be merged into org-core by Eric soon. My output from your
examples is below.
Thanks a lot for the testing.

Those changes are in the main org git repo now, so your examples should
work. Note that with your third example, the header args need to be
placed on the #+lob line rather than with the source block, so
that #+lob knows that it is to output org code (header args placed
with #+lob are inherited by the referenced source block).

Hello Dan,
Wow - that was fixed quickly !
org-mode is a great package, and babel and #+lob bring
such nice integration with several useful languages.
I'm probably just beginning to realize the potential.
Thanks very much for your response,
