Excellent --- I'm glad that the interaction with emacs-lisp is straightened
out!

I've been continuing working with source blocks and the same problem seems
to be present with clojure interaction.

#+begin_src clojure :exports both :results scalar
(ns whatever)
(defn works? [] true)
#+end_src

#+results:
| function | whatever/works? |


The clojure repl would normally output the text

"#'whatever/works?"

but this is being converted into an org-mode table, ignoring the :results
scalar declaration.

futrhermore, the same test with emacs-lisp also fails as in this example


#+begin_src clojure :results scalar
'(1 2 3)
#+end_src

#+results:
| 1 | 2 | 3 |

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


also, although :results scalar still works,  :results verbatim does not work
quite yet for emacs-lisp

#+begin_src emacs-lisp :results scalar
;;(debug t nil)
'(1 2 3)
#+end_src

#+results:
: (1 2 3)


#+begin_src emacs-lisp :results verbatim
;;(debug t nil)
'(1 2 3)
#+end_src

#+results:
| 1 | 2 | 3 |



M-x org-version returns:
Org-mode version 7.5 (release_7.5.414.g56de5.dirty)


Thank you so much for your prompt attention to my last comments!

sincerely,
