+#+title: The Library of Babel
+#+author: Org-mode People
+#+STARTUP: hideblocks
+
+* Introduction
+
+The Library of Babel is an extensible collection of ready-made and
+easily-shortcut-callable source-code blocks for handling common tasks.
+Org-babel comes pre-populated with the source-code blocks located in
+this file. It is possible to add source-code blocks from any org-mode
+file to the library by calling =(org-babel-lob-ingest
+"path/to/file.org")=.
+
+This file is included in worg mainly less for viewing through the web
+interface, and more for contribution through the worg git repository.
+If you have code snippets that you think others may find useful please
+add them to this file and [[file:~/src/worg/worg-git.org::contribute-to-worg][contribute them]] to worg.
+
+The raw Org-mode text of this file can be downloaded at
+[[repofile:contrib/babel/library-of-babel.org][library-of-babel.org]]
+
+* Simple
+
+A collection of simple utility functions:
+
+#+name: echo
+#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var input="echo'd"
+ input
+#+end_src
+
+* File I/O
+
+** Reading and writing files
+
+Read the contents of the file at =file=. The =:results vector= and
+=:results scalar= header arguments can be used to read the contents of
+file as either a table or a string.
+
+#+name: read
+#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var file="" :var format=""
+ (if (string= format "csv")
+ (with-temp-buffer
+ (org-table-import (expand-file-name file) nil)
+ (org-table-to-lisp))
+ (with-temp-buffer
+ (insert-file-contents (expand-file-name file))
+ (buffer-string)))
+#+end_src
+
+Write =data= to a file at =file=. If =data= is a list, then write it
+as a table in traditional Org-mode table syntax.
+
+#+name: write
+#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var data="" :var file="" :var ext='()
+ (flet ((echo (r) (if (stringp r) r (format "%S" r))))
+ (with-temp-file file
+ (case (and (listp data)
+ (or ext (intern (file-name-extension file))))
+ ('tsv (insert (orgtbl-to-tsv data '(:fmt echo))))
+ ('csv (insert (orgtbl-to-csv data '(:fmt echo))))
+ (t (org-babel-insert-result data)))))
+ nil
+#+end_src
+
+** Remote files
+
+*** json
+
+Read local or remote file in [[http://www.json.org/][json]] format into emacs-lisp objects.
+
+#+name: json
+#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var file='() :var url='()
+ (require 'json)
+ (cond
+ (file
+ (with-temp-filebuffer file
+ (goto-char (point-min))
+ (json-read)))
+ (url
+ (require 'w3m)
+ (with-temp-buffer
+ (w3m-retrieve url)
+ (goto-char (point-min))
+ (json-read))))
+#+end_src
+
+*** Google docs
+
+The following code blocks make use of the [[http://code.google.com/p/googlecl/][googlecl]] Google command line
+tool. This tool provides functionality for accessing Google services
+from the command line, and the following code blocks use /googlecl/
+for reading from and writing to Google docs with Org-mode code blocks.
+
+**** Read a document from Google docs
+
+The =google= command seems to be throwing "Moved Temporarily" errors
+when trying to download textual documents, but this is working fine
+for spreadsheets.
+
+#+name: gdoc-read
+#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var title="example" :var format="csv"
+ (let* ((file (concat title "." format))
+ (cmd (format "google docs get --format %S --title %S" format title)))
+ (message cmd) (message (shell-command-to-string cmd))
+ (prog1 (if (string= format "csv")
+ (with-temp-buffer
+ (org-table-import (shell-quote-argument file) '(4))
+ (org-table-to-lisp))
+ (with-temp-buffer
+ (insert-file-contents (shell-quote-argument file))
+ (buffer-string)))
+ (delete-file file)))
+#+end_src
+
+For example, a line like the following can be used to read the
+contents of a spreadsheet named =num-cells= into a table.
+: #+call: gdoc-read(title="num-cells"")
+
+A line like the following can be used to read the contents of a
+document as a string.
+
+: #+call: gdoc-read(title="loremi", :format "txt")
+
+**** Write a document to a Google docs
+
+Write =data= to a google document named =title=. If =data= is tabular
+it will be saved to a spreadsheet, otherwise it will be saved as a
+normal document.
+
+#+name: gdoc-write
+#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var title="babel-upload" :var data=fibs(n=10) :results silent
+ (let* ((format (if (listp data) "csv" "txt"))
+ (tmp-file (make-temp-file "org-babel-google-doc" nil (concat "." format)))
+ (cmd (format "google docs upload --title %S %S" title tmp-file)))
+ (with-temp-file tmp-file
+ (insert
+ (if (listp data)
+ (orgtbl-to-csv
+ data '(:fmt (lambda (el) (if (stringp el) el (format "%S" el)))))
+ (if (stringp data) data (format "%S" data)))))
+ (message cmd)
+ (prog1 (shell-command-to-string cmd) (delete-file tmp-file)))
+#+end_src
+
+example usage
+: #+name: fibs
+: #+begin_src emacs-lisp :var n=8
+: (flet ((fib (m) (if (< m 2) 1 (+ (fib (- m 1)) (fib (- m 2))))))
+: (mapcar (lambda (el) (list el (fib el))) (number-sequence 0 (- n 1))))
+: #+end_src
+:
+: #+call: gdoc-write(title="fibs", data=fibs(n=10))
+
+* Plotting code
+
+** R
+
+Plot column 2 (y axis) against column 1 (x axis). Columns 3 and
+beyond, if present, are ignored.
+
+#+name: R-plot
+#+begin_src R :var data=R-plot-example-data
+plot(data)
+#+end_src
+
+#+tblname: R-plot-example-data
+| 1 | 2 |
+| 2 | 4 |
+| 3 | 9 |
+| 4 | 16 |
+| 5 | 25 |
+
+#+call: R-plot(data=R-plot-example-data)
+
+#+resname: R-plot(data=R-plot-example-data)
+: nil
+
+** Gnuplot
+
+* Org reference
+
+** Headline references
+
+#+name: headline
+#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var headline=top :var file='()
+ (save-excursion
+ (when file (get-file-buffer file))
+ (org-open-link-from-string (org-make-link-string headline))
+ (save-restriction
+ (org-narrow-to-subtree)
+ (buffer-string)))
+#+end_src
+
+#+call: headline(headline="headline references")
+
+* Tables
+
+** LaTeX Table Export
+
+*** booktabs
+
+This source block can be used to wrap a table in the latex =booktabs=
+environment. The source block adds a =toprule= and =bottomrule= (so
+don't use =hline= at the top or bottom of the table). The =hline=
+after the header is replaced with a =midrule=.
+
+Note that this function bypasses the Org-mode LaTeX exporter and calls
+=orgtbl-to-generic= to create the output table. This means that the
+entries in the table are not translated from Org-mode to LaTeX.
+
+It takes the following arguments -- all but the first two are
+optional.
+
+| arg | description |
+|-------+--------------------------------------------|
+| table | a reference to the table |
+| align | alignment string |
+| env | optional environment, default to "tabular" |

+ (to-tab (cddr table)))
+ (to-tab table))))))
+#+end_src
+
+*** longtable
+
+This block can be used to wrap a table in the latex =longtable=
+environment, it takes the following arguments -- all but the first two
+are optional.
+
+| arg | description |
+|-----------+-------------------------------------------------------------|

+| align | optional alignment string |
+| width | optional width specification string |
+| hline | the string to use as hline separator, defaults to "\\hline" |
+| head | optional "head" string |
+| firsthead | optional "firsthead" string |
+| foot | optional "foot" string |
+| lastfoot | optional "lastfoot" string |
+
+#+name: longtable

+*** booktabs-notes
+
+This source block builds on [[booktabs]]. It accepts two additional
+arguments, both of which are optional.
+
+#+tblname: arguments

+| notes | an org-mode table with footnotes |
