You should have simply stated.
It works. Can we have the default setting changed?
instead of "Thanks ... but" which I parse as "Thanks ... but it doesn't
work".
Install a filter function for options
(add-to-list 'org-export-filter-options-functions 'org-latex-options-function)
(defun org-latex-options-function (info backend)
(when (eq backend 'latex)
(plist-put info :with-smart-quotes t)))
If the above snippet doesn't work you can search the mailing list for
Nicolas recipe.
