Well, my case is the opposite! I seldom want the names in the exported output. That's partly because I tend to name *every* code block. First, I use yasnippet to insert code blocks and it prompts for the name; second, I find it good practice as I never know if or when I might actually want to refer to the code block so naming as I go along is most convenient; third, most importantly, it makes it possible to jump to code blocks quickly in a large file! > Without knowing what it implies, I'd find an extra option rather sexy, > something such as: > > #+OPTIONS: H:4 num:nil noweb-names:t I would be happy with this! > The real question is: should we be able to turn that off for some code blocks? > Not sure, but difficult to answer that it's totally unwanted.

Or "all-but-export" which would show that there is expansion going on in all
"modes" but for export?
Anyway, I don't really care, as long as it's rather intuitive and well
documented. And I'm sure both will be true very soon.

I'd find that interesting as well, but then the names of the code blocks
must be visible again (in HTML and PDF exports), something that has
disappeared over time.

Thanks for your sample. It shows we really lack key features to be as good in
HTML as Org is in LaTeX:
- bibliography
- acronyms
- listing of images, code, etc.

I use HTML export more and more, and would be sad if the solution wasn't
targeted at all to HTML as well.
I see rare cases where I wouldn't want to see the code name: if they have a
name, most of the time, it's because they are referenced one or multiple times
from elsewhere and you'd better be able to display that information to the
reader of your LP/RR document.
Without knowing what it implies, I'd find an extra option rather sexy,
something such as:
#+OPTIONS: H:4 num:nil noweb-names:t
The real question is: should we be able to turn that off for some code blocks?
Not sure, but difficult to answer that it's totally unwanted.

There is some precedence for having target specific customisations, even
if that is not a pretty approach. As an example that has come up
recently, and one that I was just using a few minutes ago (!), we have
,[ C-h v org-export-latex-timestamp-markup RET ]
| org-export-latex-timestamp-markup is a variable defined in `org-latex.el'.

| Original value was "\\textit{%s}"
|
| Documentation:
| A printf format string to be applied to time stamps.
|
| You can customize this variable.
|
| [back]
`
Although I can see the benefit of a generic intermediate step, I am of
the belief that target specific markups are going to be more powerful
and likely more useful...
Just my two ยข.

Andreas' suggestion, :noweb no-export, seems right to me.
I think it might be good to have a parameter that expands noweb
references on evaluation and tangling, but leaves them alone during
export. This way the code block would be fully functional, but
wouldn't duplicate code during export (when the noweb references are
to other code blocks in the same document).

I think you're right about getting this done early in the process. I've
been thinking only about LaTeX export because that is my immediate
goal--not a good design perspective.
Perhaps I could help by specifying what I'm trying to do? I'd like to
write an article or book about particular statistical analyses. I want
this also to be a piece of reproducible research so readers of the book
can follow along and perhaps analyze data of their own. I'd like to
write a code block once and then use it in the following ways: 1)
evaluate and return the results of analyses; 2) export as a floating
listing so I can refer to it in discussions of implementation; and 3)
tangle to a source code file that can be used as the basis for a package
that can be used outside of Org mode.
1) is easy with #+call: With the :wrap header argument that we've
partially implemented, I can mark the results off in whatever
environment I like, which is a wonderful bit of flexibility. Different
kinds of results can be presented distinctively.
2) is partially there--the code itself is handled nicely by minted and
I'm able to make it look as good as I want. What I'm lacking now is an
easy way to identify the code block. Seb's suggestion that the header
lines be included is one way, though Eric F.'s point about the special
characters tripping up LaTeX is well taken. It might be some work to
get an intermediate representation that can be exported to all the
targets. My alternate idea, which is to wrap the code block in an
environment to which I can attach a caption and a label, is the LaTeX
approach and might not work as well for other export targets.
3) I don't have much experience with this but I believe the tangling
apparatus does everything I might want. I remember some discussion on
the list a while back about using Org mode for writing R packages. I'll
need to follow up on that to see how far that effort got. Ideally, I'd
tangle the full R package, but it might prove easier to tangle the
source code and then use R tools to work out documentation (although
that sounds like duplicated effort, now that I write it out).
Sorry to go on and on. I do much of my writing in Org mode now,
somewhat unexpectedly. There are still some rough spots, where I can't
seem to get the control I exercise in LaTeX (though these often en

As I recall this was originally implemented and then later removed
because it was causing more confusion and problems than it was worth. I
hope it hasn't crossed the line of existence more than once. At some
point it should be placed behind a user-customizable variable,
preferably something like `org-babel-export-code-format' which defaults
to something like "%code" but could be augmented to something like
"Block Name: *%name*\n %code". It is not immediately clear if such a
variable should have different values for different export backends or
(likely preferable) should expand into Org-mode text *before* export.

Hmm, the manual entry for :noweb no says "However, noweb references will
still be expanded during tangling." You're right, though, :noweb no
doesn't expand noweb references during tangling. I'll work up a manual
patch.

Alternatively for LaTeX, some way to wrap exported code blocks in a
\begin{listing} ... \end{listing} environment, complete with caption and
label. This way the code block name could appear in the caption, and
with \listoflistings, in the document frontmatter as well.

The appearance of source code block names in exported latex output comes and goes in what appears to me as a random process! Personally, I don't want these names exported *ever* as they cause problems with latex, my usual target, especially because the # sign is interpreted by latex as an argument to a macro which typically doesn't make sense. My most recent use of exporting code blocks has not included the names, so I'm happy. However, only a couple of weeks ago, the names were exported. That was for a different file so maybe my settings were different? It would be nice to have some clarity on when names will appear or not and how this can be controlled. I've looked at the manual but have not found any reference to how code block names are treated on export. Any pointers would be most welcome!
