Re: [O] Selective export of Babel code blocks

Hi John,

My R knowledge is zero, but I'll give it a shot.

Are you trying to use "file-name" as a variable? if so I think the
source block header should include this: ":var file-name" and the source
block can refer to the variable as $file-name.

I'm not sure about this. The syntax seems correct but I don't quite
understand the following statement from the manual:

  It is possible to include the _results_ of a code block rather than
  the body. This is done by appending parenthesis to the code block name
  which may optionally contain arguments to the code block as shown
  below.

       <<code-block-name(optional arguments)>>

My lack of knowledge of R doesn't help either. A little experimentation
should resolve it I think. :)
