Hi folks, I also have been using the \obeylines technique. But it seems a bit crufty. I do lots of work in LaTeX, so I have a sense of the perils involved in LaTeX linebreaking. Unfortunately, I have zero experience with elisp, so I can't tackle this (yet). The problem with the \obeylines hack is that if it's not properly closed with a final bracket, your file breaks. But how do you keep this final bracket in place? You can't move headlines around with the usual reckless abandon, because there's no way (that I know of) to keep that final bracket locked at the end of your text file. Unless you want to enter an \obeylines within every headline ... So I would give a +1 to \n:t giving at least rudimentary linebreak support for PDF export, rather than silently failing. As someone who regularly has to export the same file to both HTML and PDF, I would rather have an option that works 90% of the time and sometimes requires an arcane LaTeX fix (and is documented as such), than /always/ have to use an arcane LaTeX fix.
