Hi Suvayu,
Yes, there are several ways to accomplish John's goal, depending on how
he wants to structure the R code and whether or not he wants to preserve
state with one or more sessions.
I don't think it is possible to use #+CALL: inside a code block. For
that, there is noweb syntax. So, for John's recent code, this should
work with or without sessions:
#+name: preamble
#+begin_src R
tikzDevice("export-file-name.tex")
#+end_src
#+begin_src R :noweb yes
<<preamble>>
ggplot(data, aex(x=x, y=y)) + geom_point()
#+end_src
The :noweb header argument can take several values to control when these
noweb references are expanded. Many of these don't show in the Org-mode
manual on Worg. Here they are in org.texi:
The @code{:noweb} header argument controls expansion of ``noweb'' syntax
references (see @ref{Noweb reference syntax}) when the code block is
evaluated, tangled, or exported. The @code{:noweb} header argument can have
one of the five values: @code{no}, @code{yes}, @code{tangle}, or
@code{no-export} @code{strip-export}.
@itemize @bullet
@item @code{no}
The default. ``Noweb'' syntax references in the body of the code block will
not be expanded before the code block is evaluated, tangled or exported.
@item @code{yes}
``Noweb'' syntax references in the body of the code block will be
expanded before the code block is evaluated, tangled or exported.
@item @code{tangle}
``Noweb'' syntax references in the body of the code block will be expanded
before the code block is tangled. However, ``noweb'' syntax references will
not be expanded when the code block is evaluated or exported.
@item @code{no-export}
``Noweb'' syntax references in the body of the code block will be expanded
before the block is evaluated or tangled. However, ``noweb'' syntax
references will not be expanded when the code block is exported.
@item @code{strip-export}
``Noweb'' syntax references in the body of the code block will be expanded
before the block is evaluated or tangled. However, ``noweb'' syntax
references will not be removed when the code block is exported.
@item @code{eval}
``Noweb'' syntax references in the body of the code block will only be
expanded before the block is evaluated.
@end itemize
So, John might be satisfied with something like this:
#+begin_src R :noweb no-export
<<preamble>>
ggplot(data, aex(x=x, y=y)) + geom_point()
#+end_src
hth,
Tom
