What exactly is the proper way to export code with ditaa? My knowledge
must be fragmentary for only the code is exported but the conversion to
images failes.

I did something like this:

Load the appropriate libs, like org-babel, org-babel-tangle, org-ditaa,
org-exp-blocks, then set the variable `org-ditaa-jar-path' to the ditaa
jar file.

The according lines in my org file look like this:


#+begin_src ditaa :file image.png :cmdline -r
+---------+
| cBLU    |
|         |
|    +----+
|    |cPNK|
|    |    |
+----+----+
#+end_src

Hi Henry,

Try pressing C-c C-c with the cursor on your ditaa block.  If an image
is generated and a link inserted into the file, but you're still not
getting an image on export then try making the following change (adding
an exports header argument) to your block

#+begin_src ditaa :file image.png :cmdline -r :exports results
+---------+
| cBLU    |
|         |
|    +----+
|    |cPNK|
|    |    |
+----+----+
#+end_src

otherwise you probably don't have org-babel activated in which case
adding

(require 'org-babel-init)

to your .emacs should help.
