Yes that's what I see in general format. You ran it 3x in on second so I can't very we're seeing the same thing. But the order becomes 1 5 4 3 2 That is, 2 is appended as expected, but then 3 is inserted after 1 but before 2, 4 is after 1 but before 3, etc. > I would expect to see: Again, all your strings appear the same so I can' verify order. I don't mind multiple :results: :end: drawers, I just want the order to be 1 2 3 4 5 > I'm curious, what broader goal are you trying to achieve? How does the > leading ":" stop you? I have a beancount (plain text accounting) file that is an Org file. Beancount parsing of that file ignores lines that start with "*" or "#", so I can organize finances by heading. The beancount parser fails on lines that begin with ":" Under a given set of headings, e.g., * Finances ** Assets *** Bank Foo **** Checking I parse the bank data (code defined elsewhere via library-of-babel) and convert to Beancount syntax with: #+CALL: bank2bc() I'd like to evaluate (C-c C-c) that CALL when I get a new statement each month, and have results appended, not prepended. For accounts with a lot of transactions, I add a new heading, and then this issue goes away. ***** 2024-01 But for accounts with few transactions, I'd like to break it by year not month, and have transactions appear in chronological order. -k.
