Kai, With the old exporter, you could make your own special-string and convert it.
In init.el: -------------------------------------------------- ;; For old exporter: C-c C-e h (eval-after-load "org" '(setq org-export-html-special-string-regexps (append org-export-html-special-string-regexps '(("-nd-" . "--"))))) -------------------------------------------------- I've not been able to get special-strings working with the new exporter, but it should be something like: -------------------------------------------------- ;; For new exporter (but not yet) (eval-after-load "org" '(setq org-e-html-special-string-regexps (append org-e-html-special-string-regexps '(("-nd-" . "--"))))) -------------------------------------------------- HTH -BC
