Quine for emacs org-mode: a source block that evaluates to itself
The following source block will evaluate to itself using C-c C-c
.
I'm assuming that org-confirm-babel-evaluate
has been set to nil
.
#+RESULTS: #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :results output raw (let ((print-escape-newlines t) (s "#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :results output raw\n(let ((print-escape-newlines t) (s %S)) (princ (format s s)))\n#+END_SRC")) (princ (format s s))) #+END_SRC
Update: even better, you can set org-confirm-babel-evaluate
in the header.
#+RESULTS: #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :var d=(setq org-confirm-babel-evaluate nil) :results output raw (let ((print-escape-newlines t) (s "#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :var d=(setq org-confirm-babel-evaluate nil) :results output raw\n(let ((print-escape-newlines t) (s %S)) (princ (format s s)))\n#+END_SRC")) (princ (format s s))) #+END_SRC
