Help tangling

[Andreas Hilboll]

Hi,

I want to write a "SConstruct" file (for SCons, a Python make
alternative) in orgmode, using literate programming.  So I have a file
"SConstruct.org", where I include the code blocks with "#+begin_src ...
#+end_src".  My question:

   How can I specify that *all* code blocks shall be tangled into one
single file called "SConstruct"?

I know I could do this by writing

   #+begin_src python :tangle SConstruct
   [...]
   #+end_src

instead of

   #+begin_src
   [...]
   #+end_src

but is there some way to define the "python" and the ":tangle
SConstruct" 'globally' for the whole file?

Thanks for helping me orgmode-newbie!

no

yes

#+Property: tangle SConstruct

Thanks for your feedback, Eric!  However, it doesn't seem to work properly.

The first two lines of my file read

   #+OPTIONS: toc:4 h:4
   #+PROPERTY: tangle SConstruct

and I have several code blocks like

   #+begin_src python
   [...]
   #+end_src

However, when I invoke org-babel-tangle, I get the message "Tangled 0
code blocks from SConstruct.org", and no output file is created.

Have I misunderstood you?  What am I doing wrong?

Cheers, Andreas.

You may have to C-c C-c on the property line so that it is re-read by
Emacs (which normally only happens when opening the file).
