[Much better !-) Thanks for the reference.]

Another expression for it is "crossing out": basically a horizontal line
drawn through the text at half-height, generally indicating erased text.

Try exporting the following to html (for some reason, the strike-through
feature did not work for me in the LaTeX exporter) and viewing it in your
browser:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

* Emphasis and monospace

  - *bold*

  - /italic/

  - _underlined_

  - =code=

  - ~verbatim~

  - +strike-through+

  
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


HTH,
Nick

I see +xxx+ is cross out.
Thanks.

Trying to answer waterloo's question about strike-through, I tried
LaTeX-exporting the following:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

* Emphasis and monospace

  - *bold*

  - /italic/

  - _underlined_

  - =code=

  - ~verbatim~

  - +strike-through+

  
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

but the resulting LaTeX file has the wrong markup for strike-through:

,----
| ...
| \begin{itemize}
| \item \textbf{bold}
| \item \emph{italic}
| \item \underline{underlined}
| \item \texttt{code}
| \item \texttt{verbatim}
| \item \texttt{strike-through}
| \end{itemize}
| ...  
`----

The correct markup, according to the TeX FAQ:

http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=overstrike,

is obtained using the ulem package:


\usepackage{ulem}

...
\sout{strike-through}
...


The change for \sout is trivial (just change
org-export-latex-emphasis-alist), but adding the ulem package
conditionally is perhaps more difficult. Maybe it should be
added unconditionally? AFAIK, there is no mechanism for including
\usepackages conditionally, is there?

Thanks,
Nick

...or as the FAQ clearly states but I omitted to mention:

\usepackage{soul}

...
\st{strike-through}
...

I don't know which of the two packages is "better", but as far
as the LaTeX exporter is concerned, they both present the same
problem.

Hi Nick and waterloo,

I have now added the ulem package to support strike-through emphasis.
Thanks for looking this up in the TeX docs.
