Hi Eric, thanks for looking into this. And thanks for the confirmation already!
Good to know, that it is specific to R -- I had not checked. Of course, I do not want to use R to do mere subsetting, but rather some more complex processing, which I do not want to do in shell (or elisp,....) I have some more data on this bug if this is helpful: (1) On normal code blocks it depends on the order of the arguments. It seems to work for the last argument: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- #+name: testtable2 | a | b | |---+---| | 1 | 3 | | 3 | 3 | | 4 | 1 | | 4 | 2 | #+header: :var testtable=testtable2 #+header: :var dummy=20 #+begin_src R :colnames yes testtable[2:3,] #+end_src #+results: | X1 | X3 | |----+----| | 4 | 1 | | 4 | 2 | #+header: :var dummy=20 #+header: :var testtable=testtable2 #+begin_src R :colnames yes testtable[2:3,] #+end_src #+results: | a | b | |---+---| | 3 | 3 | | 4 | 1 | --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- (2) It is also buggy in call lines: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- #+name: testtable2 | a | b | |---+---| | 1 | 3 | | 3 | 3 | | 4 | 1 | | 4 | 2 | #+name: process_testtable #+header: :var dummy=20 #+header: :var testtable=testtable2 #+begin_src R :colnames yes testtable[2:3,] #+end_src #+results: process_testtable | a | b | |---+---| | 3 | 3 | | 4 | 1 | #+call: process_testtable() :colnames yes #+results: | a | b | |---+---| | 3 | 3 | | 4 | 1 | #+call: process_testtable(dummy=24) :colnames yes #+results: | a | b | |---+---| | 4 | 1 | | 4 | 2 | #+call: process_testtable(dummy=24, testtable=testtable2) :colnames yes #+results: | X1 | X3 | |----+----| | 4 | 1 | | 4 | 2 | #+call: process_testtable(testtable=testtable2) :colnames yes #+results: | X1 | X3 | |----+----| | 4 | 1 | | 4 | 2 | --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Regards, Andreas Eric Schulte <schulte.e...@gmail.com> writes: > This bug looks to be specific to Babel's R support.
