I find this weird and unsound: - For code blocks, the results' name (curdir) is the code block's name (curdir). - For call lines, as you do above, you give another name to the results of a call line (myname) than the name of the call line itself (curdircall). This is not appealing to me, and confusing at least. Best regards, Seb -- Sebastien Vauban ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 9+ messages in thread

Let's assume, the original code block takes an argument. I want to 'get rid of' that argument, let's say to avoid typing. So, I have to name the result of calling that code block with a specific argument. There has to be at least one level of indirection here? IIUC, you propose to use a code block to provide that argument, and my idea was to use a #+call line. For me, a call line is the more natural way to accomplish this. >> I found out how to do it.

I agree completely. So my question boils down to this feature request: Now, that #+call lines can be named, would it be possible to reference the results the same way as for code blocks?
