Hi Greg! 

I am not sure if this would be useful to your efforts, but I have an "R in org-mode" tutorial on github:

https://github.com/erikriverson/org-mode-R-tutorial

Apparently it is now 10 years old somehow, time flies. 

Best,

i have a question about org-in-org source blocks.  i volunteered to help
in an effort to provide a tutorial of using the ESS (Emacs Speaks
Statistics) package for R, in particular, from org mode.

i'd like to write my contribution as a .org file.  i'd like to include
fragments of org code, including source blocks (in R).  and, i'd like to
show various result types.  so, i'd like to be able to have the
#+RESULTS show up in the org-in-org source block as exported inside the
containing .org file.

and, i'd like to trigger all this from a makefile, using some emacs
batch script to export the containing .org file into a .html or .pdf
file.

(i *think*) what i would like to end up with is what it would like if i
had manually opened the org-in-org source blocks (C-c‌'), then went to
each (or, possibly, selected, i guess) source blocks inside *that*
(org-in-org) source block, and executed each, producing a #+RESULTS
block for each, then closed the org-in-org source block (C-c‌', again),
and then exported the containing .org file.

is this possible?  any ideas?

cheers, Greg
