An org file with the following content:
#+OPTIONS: *:nil /simple/ /example/ During export org will transpose the word 'example' so the final output is //examplesimple/ / This will be the output regardless of export format. I have tried html, txt, odt, md. The words will be transposed as long as they are on the same line, regardless of how many characters are between them. This was observed as early as org 8.3.5. Changing the italic character in org-emphasis-alist to | does not change this behavior. Any ideas where to start looking for this? thnx, Justin
