Hello,

I=E2=80=99ve read through most of the docs that turn up with the obvious web
searches and I haven=E2=80=99t been able to figure this out. However, it se=
ems
like it should be possible=E2=80=A6

I=E2=80=99m quite pleased with how babel and noweb can be used to write
=E2=80=9Cliterate programs=E2=80=9D for configuration files and scripts.

Cross references between code blocks with <<noweb-references>> work
just fine. What I=E2=80=99d like, but can=E2=80=99t work out, is how to ref=
er to, for
example, a configuration value inline. Something like this:

  In order to engage the flux capacitor, you must set the
  chronometer dial to ~<<required_date>>~.

  #+begin_src conf :noweb yes
  date: <<required_date>>
  #+end_src

I don=E2=80=99t care how or where =E2=80=9Crequired_date=E2=80=9D is define=
d, I just want the
ability to refer to it in the documentation and in code blocks.

Have I overlooked something obvious?

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
