26 ;; Org-Babel support for interactive terminals. Mostly shell scripts.
27 ;; Heavily inspired by 'eev' from Eduardo Ochs
29 ;; Adding :cmd and :terminal as header arguments
30 ;; :terminal must support the -T (title) and -e (command) parameter
32 ;; You can test the default setup. (xterm + sh) with
33 ;; M-x org-babel-screen-test RET
