  59 (defun org-babel-table-truncate-at-newline (string)
  60   "Replace newline character with ellipses.
  61 If STRING ends in a newline character, then remove the newline
  62 character and replace it with ellipses."
  63   (if (and (stringp string) (string-match "[\n\r]\\(.\\)?" string))
  64       (concat (substring string 0 (match-beginning 0))
  65               (when (match-string 1 string) "...")) string))
  66
  67 (defmacro org-sbe (source-block &rest variables)
  68   "Return the results of calling SOURCE-BLOCK with VARIABLES.
  69
  70 Each element of VARIABLES should be a list of two elements: the
  71 first element is the name of the variable and second element is a
  72 string of its value.
  73
  74 So this `org-sbe' construct
  75
  76  (org-sbe \"source-block\" (n $2) (m 3))
  77
  78 is the equivalent of the following source code block:
  79
  80  #+begin_src emacs-lisp :var results=source-block(n=val_at_col_2, m=3) :results silent
  81  results
  82  #+end_src
  83
  84 NOTE: The quotation marks around the function name,
  85 'source-block', are optional.
  86
  87 NOTE: By default, string variable names are interpreted as
  88 references to source-code blocks, to force interpretation of a
  89 cell's value as a string, prefix the identifier a \"$\" (e.g.,
  90 \"$$2\" instead of \"$2\" or \"$@2$2\" instead of \"@2$2\").
  91
  92 NOTE: It is also possible to pass header arguments to the code
  93 block.  In this case a table cell should hold the string value of
  94 the header argument which can then be passed before all variables
  95 as shown in the example below.
