Heh!
Ok thats the least I can do.
Trouble is you guys are the hares that make us (me at least) into tortoises
--
you add significant functionality faster than I can keep with the 'what'
(leave aside how and details).

Still I'll try my hand.
What I would like is a graphic -- an automata-diagram made perhaps by dot.
Can that easily/conveniently go up onto worg?

Over time in using org Ive come up with some issues.
Some have been solved. Some I was shown workarounds.
Some remain unsolved.

Many of these issues can be clubbed together under what computer folk call
'escaping'.

Can we have a worg page for such as the following?

   1. How to put a '=' into code
   2. How to start a line with a '*' -- (a) for headers (b) for ordinary
   lines?
   3. How to enter a '|' into tables
   4. Newlines -- \\ behaves inconsistently in latex and html [Same  as
   above because its about escaping newlines]
   5. How to make normal (ie not radio) text like this <<some-text>>
   6. How to make normal text that looks like  [fn::somestuff]

Note all these may not have solutions, eg a C programmer cannot get a '*/'
into a comment however he may try.  However he can get a '\' into a string
or a quote mark itself with '\\' and '\"'.  For getting a '%' into a printf
format however, '\%' is not the way but '%%' Such things are documented
(and taught to) C programmers.

Just expressing a similar need of org-moders!

Regards,

Rusi
