Thank you for the pointers. It seems that :noweb-ref is here for a task, that NAME alone cannot fulfill. I guess we have to keep it, then. Although I understand that <> can refer to a concatenation of source block contents, I cannot find any meaning in <>, which would be the result of evaluation of a block that doesn't exist. Maybe we should simply error out on this one. WDYT? Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou
