Re: [Orgmode] Re: [babel] features request for Emacs Initialization

Why not use a macro?  That is one of the great things about lisp:

(defmacro JDL-Debug (section &rest code)
  `(if JDL-Ddebuging 
     (progn 
       (message (concat “start “ ,section))
       ,code
       (message (concat “end “ ,section)))))

(I haven’t tested it, but that should work.)
