Could this be implemented for sh as well?
AFAI understand, this is exactly the missing piece for me to be able to:
- run consecutive partial blocks of code in my Org buffer (seeing what they
really do on input data),
- export the full list of block as a script.
This was described in
http://www.mail-archive.com/emacs-orgmode-mXXj517/zsQ@public.gmane.org/msg36976.html, and still
impossible -- for me! -- to do right now. But I'm not very sure I wrote my
thoughts in an enough understandable way -- maybe not clear enough to me?
Best regards,
Seb
