Hello,

I'd like to use a tikz snippet in a few different documents and it would
be convenient to be able to include it in a latex document like so:

#+CAPTION: a fine figure
#+NAME:   figure:fine_figure
#+ATTR_LaTeX: width=5cm
#+BEGIN_LATEX
\input{/home/myles/tex/tikz_figure.tex}
#+END_LATEX

What is exported is just the \input line, with no \label or \caption, i.e.:

\input{/home/myles/tex/tikz_figure.tex}

I believe this was possible with current (old) exporter, based on this
thread:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2012-10/msg00267.html

Is it currently possible or could it be added please?

On second thoughts, perhaps another way to do it would be to have a
source block make the tikz graphic as a standalone pdf/eps and then
insert it as a link to the file.  The disadvantage of that would be that
the tikz .tex file would need to be expanded to have it's own
\begin/end{document} and would loose some flexibility.  Any thoughts on
that route?

Thanks,

Myles
