The only other thing that works today that I'm aware of is you surround your text with equal signs as in =[0]= but this also probably doesn't do exactly what you want for both LaTeX and HTML export. This uses \texttt in LaTeX and <code>...</code> in HTML. In HTML you're free to defined CSS for the <code> block but you won't end up with a verbatim block in LaTeX. I proposed the two previous examples because preceeding the text with ': ' creates a \begin{verbatim} block in LaTeX. If you document is targeted only for LaTeX export then you can use LaTeX macros directly in the source.
