It sounds a little circular.

This org-file adds a hook function when loaded. Maybe you can adapt
something like this? ymmv...


#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :tangle my-local-hook.el
(+ 9 9)
#+END_SRC

* hook function

#+name: my-hook-function
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(defun my-special-hook () (message-box "tangled from org"))
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS: my-hook-function
: my-special-hook

# Local Variables:
# eval: (progn (re-search-forward "my-hook-function") (org-babel-execute-src-block) (add-hook 'org-babel-post-tangle-hook 'my-special-hook))
# End:
