Trying my best to follow the evolution here.... I've tried to discern
from the manual and Worg the best way to do something, generally try
it and fail. Then I post to the list and get an answer. A short time
later, I try doing what I think is approximately the same thing to
find that it seems to have changed since the last time:

To print multiple file names and =#+attr_stuff= options, the answer
was =:results output org :exports results=
- http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2012-08/msg01224.html

Trying to do the same exact thing a bit later was =:results output
wrap=, shortly followed up with the instruction to use =:wrap org=
- http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2013-03/msg01599.html

Now, it's =:wrap latex=, but I'm not sure why.

Is =:wrap org= appropriate for anything? I understood it as telling
Org-mode, "Hey, I want you to parse this results block as if it was
written directly in Org-mode." That seems like what I want to do.

Since I posted this question, I decided it would be easier to display
results in a small table. Something like this:

#+begin_src R :session r :exports results :results output :wrap org

library(ascii)

cat("Blah blah blah and this value is", var1,  "\n")

qty_table <- ascii(qtys[, c(1, 3, 4)], header = T, include.colnames =
T, include.rownames = F)

print(qty_table, type = "org")

#+end_src

That exports correctly (get my paragraphs and LaTeX table), but I
still get an error about \begin{org}. Using =:wrap latex= does not
work, as it's not interpreting the Org table properly.


Thanks for the assistance,
John

P.S. Sorry for the "venty" tone... I just hate 1) pestering the list
again and again for what I think are similar things and feeling
foolish and defeated by the documentation, and 2) having to wait to
have mysteries unveiled... especially when I'm using Org for
time-critical work things!
