Well, you're exporting them at least *once*, right? If not, where are
the results coming from?

Perhaps my use case is similar. I often write up an org doc with a
pretty heavy setup heading containing my main data reading in,
manipulation, statistics, etc. Maybe up to 100k total rows in a data
frame in R. Once I run that block the first time I'm working on the
document I just put =:eval no= in the src block options.

I do the same as I'm tweaking plots. Every code block I create has
:eval yes initially and once I'm satisfied with the results I just
change to :eval no and the generated results (for me, typically a
#+results line containing a link to a pdf plot generated by my code
block) are still included.

Does this help at all? Sorry if I'm not understanding

Mine is set to t. Interestingly, when I export the above after
deleting the results bit, no new results are generated. When I C-c
C-c, they are replaced. When I add :eval no, it does't appear to run
the code.


Hope that helps,
John
