To run mysql code in org-mode (which by the way is pretty incredible that this works at all, and so beautifully, especially since I'm on Windows), I have to have a long header: #+BEGIN_SRC sql :exports both :results value :engine mysql :cmdline -h XXX.YYY.XXX.YYY -u user -ppassword -D database I'd like to put all those flags in one place so I only need to say #+BEGIN_SRC sql (and maybe the exports/results). If I put them in PROPERTY tags at the end of the buffer: #+PROPERTY: exports both #+PROPERTY: results value #+PROPERTY: engine mysql #+PROPERTY: cmdline -h XXX.YYY.XXX.YYY -u user -ppassword -D database then exporting no longer works, I presume because the exporter doesn't like :cmdline or :exports or :results or something else about me setting these globally. Is there a way to set them for sql blocks only? Or some kind of macro I can use to tidy up my sql blocks? (I'm running recent git org-mode from a couple of weeks ago, Emacs 24.3.50.1, Windows) -- Gary
