Re: inline constant substitution

[Grant Rettke <gcr@wisdomandwonder.com>]

Should a noweb-ref be expanded as imagined inside of a table for this case?

Eg pseudo code:

,----
| #+NAME: foo
| #+begin_src emacs-lisp
| 42
| #+end_src
|
|
| #+NAME: ns
| |     n |
| |-------|
| |     1 |
| |     2 |
| | <<foo>> |
| |       |
`----
