Naming a table produced by a CALL

Naming a table produced by a CALL

[Loris Bennett]

Hi,

I have a CALL which produces a table, which just gets the keyword
RESULT.  I would like to plot the data in the table with R and so would
like to refer to the data in the table.

It seems I need to need to replace RESULT by NAME in
org-babel-results-keyword, but how do I pass the actual name?

Cheers,

Loris

Make the CALL named:

#+name: foo
#+call: foo()

Thanks.  In retrospect, that seems quite obvious.  Where is this
documented and should it be mentioned here:

http://orgmode.org/manual/Evaluating-code-blocks.html

?

This is a 'not-so-old' feature.  And I do not know whether it is
documented at all.  I agree that 'Evaluating code blocks' is where the
documentation should go.

Yes, I believe this was added in the last month or two.

I'll happily apply a documentation patch.  I don't believe the copyright
assignment required for code contributions is required for contributions
to the documentation.

This seems to break if I then try to reference the results of the call:

#+NAME: test
#+BEGIN_SRC sh
echo a b c
echo 1 2 3
echo 4 5 6
#+END_SRC

#+NAME: call-test
#+CALL: test() :results table :colnames yes

#+RESULT: call-test
| a | b | c |
|---+---+---|
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
| 4 | 5 | 6 |

#+NAME: r-test
#+HEADER: :var data=call-test
#+HEADER: :colnames yes
#+BEGIN_SRC R
data
#+END_SRC

#+RESULT: r-test
| x   |
|-----|
| nil |

Is it perhaps not clear whether "call-test" refers to the result or the
call?  Or is my config broken?  I'm using version 

8.2.5g (8.2.5g-7-gb2dce8-elpaplus).

Cheers,

Loris

I'd expect this to be call-test()
                               ^^
But it works for me with both call-test and call-test().

quick test on my setup with Org-mode version 8.2.4 (release_8.2.4-332-g7059d3):

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+NAME: test
#+BEGIN_SRC sh
echo a b c
echo 1 2 3
echo 4 5 6
#+END_SRC

#+results: test
| a | b | c |
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
| 4 | 5 | 6 |

#+NAME: call-test
#+CALL: test() :results table :colnames yes

#+results: call-test
| a | b | c |
|---+---+---|
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
| 4 | 5 | 6 |


#+NAME: r-test
#+HEADER: :var data=call-test
#+HEADER: :colnames yes
#+BEGIN_SRC R
data
#+END_SRC

#+results: r-test
| a | b | c |
|---+---+---|
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
| 4 | 5 | 6 |
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Are you sure about your '#+RESULT' ?

The default value for org-babel-results-keyword seems to be 'RESULTS'
with an 'S'.

(I have customized that to be lower case 'results'.)

Andreas

Yes, thanks, you're right.  I must have set that to RESULT by accident
after having changed it.  That has fixed another problem I was having,
namely the result block was not being replaced on re-evaluation of the
block, but a new one was created instead.

However, I've still got the original problem that the 

#+RESULTS: r-test
| x   |
|-----|
| nil |

whether I  do

#+HEADER: :var data=call-test

or

#+HEADER: :var data=call-test()

If I comment out the line

#+NAME: call-test

it works and I get

#+RESULTS: r-test
| a | b | c |
|---+---+---|
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
| 4 | 5 | 6 |

So I guess my config must be borked in some other way as well.

Cheers,

Loris
