[O] Running "org-babel-tangle" and/or "org-export-as-pdf" in Emacs batch mode

[Bernd Weiss]

Dear all,

I am not sure if this an orgmode-, an ESS- or an Emacs-related question.

I am working on an orgmode-file with embedded R code. Since I am using a
build tool called waf, I would like to call Emacs from command line like
this:

emacs --batch --load "e:/config/.emacs" --visit test.org --funcall
org-export-as-pdf

(or call org-babel-tangle)

However, it stops with "Type C-h m for help on ESS version 12.03". If I
remove the R part (#+begin_src etc.), everything works as expected.

This is my (hopefully) minimal example, the command line output and the
orgmode related infos.

Thanks,

Bernd
