Subject: Generate BEGIN_EXAMPLE block dynamically during export

Hi all,

I'd like to have an EXAMPLE block in my org file whose value is set using
something like an org macro at the time of export.

So, something like:

#+MACRO TAR_FILE some_file.tar.gz

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
> tar xvzf {{{TAR_FILE}}}
#+END_EXAMPLE

As the above is not possible, what would be a good way to generate the
EXAMPLE block on the fly during export with the value of {{{TAR_FILE}}}
replaced based on the macro definition?
