Hi Eric,

thank you very much, it works as announced.

I have probs with replacing/overlaying the built-in org-mode in my Emacs 
(w32-binary),
but that's not issue here.

After an eval-buffer of ob-tangle.el I can reproduce the expected result.

Exporting the buffer first is necessary, but that could be done by the 
pre-tangle-hook I hope.

Thank you very much for that quick feature patch.


Regards,

Olaf
