I am not sure whether this is already forwarded. I am forwarding this thread from emacs-devel mailing list. Hopefully patchworks picks up this patch.
Thanks and Regards Noorul
--- Begin Message ---Hi emacs-devel, I would like to suggest the following small change to the org-mode ascii export feature in emacs 23.2. The reason for this is because org-mode export supports embedded LaTeX in a LaTeX sort of fashion where a symbol can be placed inside a word provided it is terminated with '{}'. However in an ascii export the '{}' remains trailing the converted symbol making it very difficult to seamlessly support these inlined symbols across multiple export formats. The manual likewise states: "If you need such a symbol inside a word, terminate it like this: ‘\Aacute{}stor’." indicating that this form is (or should be) supported. The fix is quite simple, the regexp for matching LaTeX symbols to be exported needs to allow for the terminating '{}' if existing. I have included the necessary patch below. Thanks alot, ~Arik GNU Emacs 23.2.1 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.10.4) of 2010-07-26 on lacuna --- org-ascii.el +++ org-ascii.el @@ -586,7 +586,7 @@ (defun org-ascii-replace-entities () "Replace entities with the ASCII representation."
