Hi,
I'm writing a document in which I use footnotes to hold references to
many tools. One often wants the tool name in tt font, and the footnote
to be touching the tool name (i.e. =tool=[fn:1] ). Unfortunately
currently Org-mode doesn't fontify or export "tool" in the above as tt.
Is there a way around this?
Thanks,
Eric

You could probably tweak `org-emphasis-regexp-components' in order to
allow square brackets as postmatch.

Should this be done personally or in master?

I can't think of a case where it could lead to confusion, so I'd say it
can go in master, at least until someone complains, if ever.
BTW, as a reminder, I'm all for thinking again how emphasis/verbatim
markup is defined in Org but I doubt changing it by small touches will
do any good. IMO, it needs to be discussed as a whole.
I think a good markup should
- not need to be customizable,
- allow any number of (non-consecutive) newline characters,
- allow escaping markup in verbatim objects.
For example, much like radio links, bold object could be defined as
1. anything but an alphanumeric character (including nothing),
2. / character,
3. an alphanumeric character,
4. anything excepted 2 or more consecutive newline characters
(non-greedy),
5. an alphanumeric character,
6. / character,
7. anything but an alphanumeric character (including nothing).
For simplicity, I ignore the special case /a/ for the moment.
The verbatim would be the same, with a slight change in 4th element:
4. the same, with \= treated as =

Thanks for this.
I agree with Nicolas that small changes like this won't encourage
a structural change by themselves, but they do not harm either,
so let's not refrain from making them.
