Hi
Each time I change the DIR property for attachments, I have to answer correctly two questions: if I want to move every file to the new path, and if I want to delete the old folder.
Is it possible to not receive these questions?
For me, it's a big risk I don't want to take every time.
Best regards

May you elaborate on what other behavior you would prefer to see?

Hi Ihor.
It would be enough to have the option to not having those prompt.
If I could set it to don't offer to copy files, and the option to don't
offer to delete old folder, it would be enough.
Best regards,
Kepa

Would you be interested to submit a patch?

No problem. Then, I will turn this discussion into a feature request.
It may be eventually implemented by other interested users.

We use yes/no prompt rather than (y/n) for a reason - it is a
destructive file operation.
What we may do instead is the following:
In addition to the sequence of prompts when changing the attachment
directory:
1. Copy over attachments from old attachment directory to new one?
2. Delete old attachment directory?
we can introduce a custom variable `org-attach-move-attachments' with
the following values:
1. 'ask (default) - display the prompts
2. 'move - move the attachments form old to new directory (same as yes,
yes answer)
3. 'copy - copy the attachments, keeping the old directory (yes, no answer)
4. 'keep or nil - keep the attachments in the old directory (no, no answer)
I guess that no, yes answer that would delete the attachments is not
something we want to allow as automatic behavior.

Hi
For :noweb-prefix of noweb feature, now we have "yes" or "no" option.
Can we add a new "whitespace" option so that we can:
Giving following fragments,
#+begin_src elisp :noweb-ref varable-bindings
(a 0)
(b 1)
#+end_src
#+begin_src elisp :noweb-ref do-something
`(,a ,b)
#+end_src
we use the "whitespace" option here
#+name: a-fragment
#+begin_src elisp :noweb yes :noweb-prefix whitespace
(let (<<varable-bindings>>)
<<do-something>>)
#+end_src
to produce the follow code:
#+begin_src elisp
(let ((a 0)
(b 1))
`(,a ,b))
#+end_src
Here is a try:
#+begin_src elisp :exports results :wrap src elisp
(org-babel--expand-body (org-babel-lob--src-info "a-fragment"))
#+end_src
BTW, I'm curious if there's an public API that can output the code expansion of an noweb src block by it's name like above?
Best regards,
Chen
