Hello
I installed the software distribution MSYS2 https://www.msys2.org/. And
I'd like to call its various shells in org src blocks. First I tried to
set explicit-shell-file-name but then my LaTeX exports don't work any
longer.
Is is it possible to extend org-mode's src blocks with
org-babel-shell-names to use either MSYS2 or MinGW shells (instead of
cmd.exe)? Unfortunately ob-shell.el doesn't guide me further and I
can't find examples or the respective lisp files on how to define the
execution functions.
GNU Emacs 28.0.91 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.22.30,
cairo version 1.15.10) of 2022-01-14
Org mode version 9.4.6 (9.4.6-13-g4be129-elpaplus @
/home/dieter/.emacs.d/elpa/org-plus-contrib-20210920/)
Thanks a lot
Dieter

Yes, you are right, when using > #+begin_src sh It seems that I'm also running some bash shell! :-) Previously I was using the src block in this way: #+begin_src shell and here the shell seems to be com.exe. But I'm not sure if I'm halfway there with "sh"? I need to run the following MSYS2 command AND switch between two arguments (for building Emacs). \MSYS2\msys2_shell.cmd -mingw64 and \MSYS2\msys2_shell.cmd -msys. How could I achieve this within a src block? Thanks ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 9+ messages in thread

Whether or not it will be straight forward or not depends. It's not clear to me what you're trying to do. First off, you're looking in the right place. Unfortunately, ob-shell.el can be a little tricky to read. All the shells are initialized through the =org-babel-shell-initialize= function. This creates a "org-babel-execute:<lang>" for each of the shells given in the =org-babel-shell-names= variable (where <lang> is given by #+begin_src <lang>) . The default shells are: ("sh" "bash" "zsh" "fish" "csh" "ash" "dash" "ksh" "mksh" "posh"). All execute calls make their way through the God function =org-babel-sh-evaluate= (note: the "sh" in the function name appears to be cruft from when the ob-shell.el module was called "ob-sh.el"; it is not tied specifically to the sh shell). Technically, which shell is used to evaluate the block depends on the source block parameters used. There are several possible paths. Unless something weird is being done, however, the block should be evaluated by <lang>. It looks like you're using a simple one-off shell, not a session or a shebang, so I'll speak to that. For #+begin_src sh, the block will we evaluated by whatever "sh" corresponds to in the environment Emacs is running in. Under the hood, a call is made to the =shell= command and the =shell-file-name= variable gets set to whatever <lang> the block specifies. The an binding happens in =org-babel-shell-initialize=. So, open a command line environment that would be used to start Emacs and see what "sh" corresponds to: which sh That's the shell used by #+begin_src sh. Similarly, whatever "which bash" shows is what #+begin_src bash uses. This is why it would be surprising that cmd.exe would be used. I know that was a lot. Depending, it may be as simple as updating the =org-babel-shell-names= and rerunning =org-babel-shell-initialize=. Check the doc strings on those. Otherwise, I hope this helps ob-shell.el guide you better. > But I'm not sure if I'm halfway there with "sh"?

I'm not sure I follow you here. Can you please describe what you're trying to do and the system you're using (e.g. Windows, GNU/Linux, Haiku) as well the shell used to run the Emacs instance you're doing this in? ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 9+ messages in thread

I had asked about the system to help troubleshoot yet that info was clearly given in the thread title. :) You said you weren't sure if you're halfway there with "sh".
