That is neat! Thank you so much for this.

Learning to embrace org was a long and arid journey (it can do so much you quickly get lost in the process). Babel was the first extension I really enjoyed to use from day 1. It is what I expected from a literate programming tool.

I've never much used IPython but I heard a lot of praise about it. I guess it's the perfect timing to jump in.

Are you planning on adding to the languages' page? [1]

IPython Notebook can export a report to PDF with syntax highlighted code - can this?

Probably. You can mark code blocks in .org files with the Emacs "mode" for them, and they will be highlighted appropriately (and you can use a shortcut to open a new buffer in said mode just to edit that block). I imagine that if PDF export exists (I assume it does), this would map to it.

Yes, with the "gotcha" that you must set org-src-fontify-natively (a customizable setting) to non-nil.
