From: "Victor A.

I have the following minimal example which compiles correctly: #+begin_src lilypond :file test.png :cache no myVar = { e f g} \relative c' { a b c d \myVar } #+end_src Can I move the definition of myVar to a header argument of the source block? When I write this: #+begin_src lilypond :file test.png :cache no :var myVar="{ e f g }" \relative c' { a b c d \myVar } #+end_src The compiler complains: "unknown escaped string: `\myVar'". This makes me think that myVar is not passed at all to the code block. What is the correct way to do this? I know that I can do it with noweb syntax. However, I would prefer to use header args because I need those variables in all lilypond code blocks. Ultimately, I plan to pass them from org-babel-default-header-args:lilypond. Victor
