If you are using org-mode you should consider org-babel which does all you need for litrate programming and more.

I've used org-babel, but I'm still interested in Lit. The 'watch directory' feature interests me, as does the 'proper and complete' aura of Haskell.

I'd previously played around with getting org to do stuff "on commit", via git hooks, but I didn't make much progress (and given the environment I was committing from, I was sure that I was going about it backwards anyway).

Org still doesn't have a universal character escape mechanism!
