Hi all, I just pulled a fresh version of org, and this tangling an individual block only works if there's a :tangle header argument present. I don't think this is the intended behavior! The problem, it seems, is that when :tangle is not present, the (or ...) in the code below always evaluates to true. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (unless (or (cdr (assoc :tangle (nth 2 (org-babel-get-src-block-info)))) target-file) (setq target-file (read-from-minibuffer "Tangle to: " (buffer-file-name))))) #+end_src
