A "functional-style" source block is one in which the name is followed
immediately by a parenthesised argument. An example is the following
"function", which generates n uniform random numbers:
\#+srcname: rand(n)
\#+begin_src R
runif(n)
\#+end_src
With these changes, such source blocks are passed over to the export
machinery in the following form:
\#+begin_src org-babel-lob
<function-def-keyword> rand(n):
\#+end_src
\#+begin_src R <switches>
<indent>runif(n)
\#+end_src
where <function-def-keyword> is the value of
org-babel-function-def-export-keyword, which defaults to "function",
<switches> are the src block switches that belonged to the original
block, and <indent> is the whitespace indent of the function body, the
width of which is determined by org-babel-function-def-export-indent.
org-babel-lob is a simple major mode responsible for fontification of
the blocks corresponding to the function definition line (as opposed
to the function body).
- org-babel-get-src-block-info returns the name of the block as a new
fifth element.
- org-babel-get-src-block-info incorporates the parenthesised variable
references into the header arg list, with precendence given to
explicit :var references, as before.
- remove function org-babel-get-src-block-name
- remove function org-babel-get-src-block-function-args
org-babel-get-src-block-function-args now returns a list
(lang body params-alist switches srcname)
where, unless a non-nil value for the optional argument is passed,
params-alist contains any :var entries acquired from the parenthesised
argument list following the srcname.
This forces the #+lob regexp to match at the beginning of a line (with
optional preceding whitespace), and requires inline code blocks to be
surrounded by some whitespace.
