  Hi,

I'm running into a problem with latex export. I have several essays 
under a top level heading "Essays". How can I export say only one essay 
without the top level heading "Essays" also showing up in the output as 
a "Section"? I want the heading of my essay to be displayed as a latex 
section. Is this possible in any simple way? The manual describes some 
option to define my own class in the .emacs file, but I couldn't 
understand that very well.
eg.

* Essays
** Essay One
** Essay Two

I want to export only "Essay Two" (eg with a :export: tag) and don't 
want "Essays" to show up.


Thanks in advance,
Indraneel
