25;;; Commentary:
26;;
27;; This software provides EMACS org-babel export support for message
28;; sequence charts. The mscgen utility is used for processing the
29;; sequence definition, and must therefore be installed in the system.
30;;
31;; Mscgen is available and documented at
32;; http://www.mcternan.me.uk/mscgen/index.html
33;;
34;; This code is directly inspired by Eric Schulte's ob-dot.el
35;;
36;; Example:
37;;
38;; #+begin_src mscgen :file example.png
39;; msc {
40;; A,B;
41;; A -> B [ label = "send message" ];
42;; A <- B [ label = "get answer" ];
43;; }
44;; #+end_src
45;;
46;; Header for alternative file type:
47;;
48;; #+begin_src mscgen :file ex2.svg :filetype svg
49
50;; This differs from most standard languages in that
51;;
52;; 1) there is no such thing as a "session" in mscgen
53;; 2) we are generally only going to return results of type "file"
54;; 3) we are adding the "file" and "filetype" header arguments
55;; 4) there are no variables
56
57;;; Code:
58(require 'ob)
59(require 'ob-eval)
60
61(defvar org-babel-default-header-args:mscgen
62 '((:results . "file") (:exports . "results"))
