I'll describe my editing process in a separate thread (that will be called
"Literate Programming with Org").

OK.

I have this error showing up:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
executing Ruby source code block
apply: Searching for program: no such file or directory, irb

For sure. I'll be more than happy to describe what I do. In case we all can
come to something (much) better than the current way I do things.
