[O] [Babel] Header arguments

[Thomas S. Dye]

Aloha all,

I have a little function that graphs two 14C dates (below).  The data
are held in tables produced by a software package that I access on the
web.  I read these into Org-mode and give them a #+tblname:, as shown
below.  I'd like to have one function that will graph any number of tables
but I don't know how to package up the table references and get them
inside the function.  If I put them in a table, they end up as strings
inside the function.

I suspect I'm being thick about this.  Can someone give me a pointer to
how this might be done?

All the best,
Tom
