thanks for the quick answer!  The :prologue and :epilogue header
arguments have indeed slipped my attention and they look really
interesting!  I see, that they are documented, but somehow, they seem to
not get their headline and TOC entry?

I have three problems with your example, though:
1) It does not run
2) It does not work
3) It won't be usable for 'my' epilogue, correct?
;-)

1)
It does not run, because org tries to do the prologue also on the
emacs-lisp block defining the function of the prologue.  So, I get
"format: Symbol's function definition is void: get-current-name"
I changed the #+property line to
#+Property: header-args:R :prologue (format "print(\"entering %s\")" (get-current-name))
which solved that problem.

2)
But still it does not work: This is what I get in my *R* buffer:

I tried it with
- Org-mode version 8.0.4 (release_8.0.4-294-g62f20c)
- ess-version : 13.05-1 [<unknown>]
- emacs -Q -l ~/.emacs.minimal.ess.org, whith that content:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(add-to-list 'load-path
                  "~/local/emacs/org-mode-install/lisp")
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.org$" . org-mode))

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/local/emacs/ess/lisp")
(require 'ess-site)

(setq org-babel-load-languages '((emacs-lisp . t)
				 (R . t)
				 (sh . t)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

What am I missing?  (BTW: If I put a print("sth") into the R blocks
myself, I see that printed)


3)
Even if it did run, I guess putting sth similar for 'leaving code block
foo' into the epilogue would spoil the return value of my src blocks,
correct?
Is there some work-around?



Regards,
Andreas
