I had a similar setup, but ended up coding a toggle for it, as it can get rather long as your source grows. In case you find it useful: ;; Tangle Org files when we save them (defun toggle-org-tangle-on-save() (interactive) (if (bound-and-true-p org-tangle-on-save) (setq-local org-tangle-on-save nil) (setq-local org-tangle-on-save t)) (message (if org-tangle-on-save "Enabled tangling on save" "Disabled tangling on save")))
