Even if you want to run commands in a different computer you can do that with "C-c C-c" thanks to the ":dir folder" header argument and tramp. As an example, suppose I have the code block below #+begin_src sh hostname #+end_src If I run it I get something like #+RESULTS: : my_computer_name However, if if I can ssh to a server called "myserver" I can change the code block to #+begin_src sh :dir /myserver:~/ hostname #+end_src Now if I run the code block the code is executed in myserver and I get #+RESULTS: : myserver_host_name Combine this with "C-c C-v b" (org-babel-execute-buffer) and you can easily run many different commands in different machines. It is really great. Em Sat Feb 14 2015 at 01:09:02, hymie! escreveu: In our last episode, the evil Dr. Lacto had captured our hero, > jorge.alfaro-murillo@yale.edu (Jorge A.
