Subject: inline constant substitution
Date: Sun, 12 Oct 2014 15:41:51 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <871tqd1hao.fsf@rudin.co.uk> (raw)


Suppose I have: 

#+CONSTANTS: foo=42

How can I make inline references to a constant on export in regular
text, rather than in a table?

I want to be able to write something like: 

  The value of foo is $foo 

in my org file, and then end up with:

  The value of foo is 42

when I export to LaTeX.

TIA.
