;;; Commentary:

;; Functions for referencing data from the header arguments of a
;; org-babel block.  The syntax of such a reference should be

;;   #+VAR: variable-name=file:resource-id

;; - variable-name :: the name of the variable to which the value
;;                    will be assigned

;; - file :: path to the file containing the resource, or omitted if
;;           resource is in the current file

;; - resource-id :: the id or name of the resource

;; So an example of a simple source block referencing table data in
;; the same file would be

;;  #+NAME: sandbox
;;  | 1 |         2 | 3 |
;;  | 4 | org-babel | 6 |
;;
;;  #+begin_src emacs-lisp :var table=sandbox
;;    (message table)
;;  #+end_src
