;;; Code:
(require 'ob-core)

(defun org-babel-table-truncate-at-newline (string)
  "Replace newline character with ellipses.
If STRING ends in a newline character, then remove the newline
character and replace it with ellipses."
  (if (and (stringp string) (string-match "[\n\r]\\(.\\)?" string))
      (concat (substring string 0 (match-beginning 0))
	      (if (match-string 1 string) "...")) string))

(defmacro org-sbe (source-block &rest variables)
  "Return the results of calling SOURCE-BLOCK with VARIABLES.
Each element of VARIABLES should be a two
element list, whose first element is the name of the variable and
second element is a string of its value.  The following call to
`org-sbe' would be equivalent to the following source code block.

 (org-sbe 'source-block (n $2) (m 3))

#+begin_src emacs-lisp :var results=source-block(n=val_at_col_2, m=3) :results silent
results
#+end_src

NOTE: by default string variable names are interpreted as
references to source-code blocks, to force interpretation of a
cell's value as a string, prefix the identifier a \"$\" (e.g.,
\"$$2\" instead of \"$2\" or \"$@2$2\" instead of \"@2$2\").

NOTE: it is also possible to pass header arguments to the code
block.  In this case a table cell should hold the string value of
the header argument which can then be passed before all variables
as shown in the example below.
