Hi,
I have noticed that smart quotes are not picked up for “long” languages,
like “en-gb”, since smart quotes are defined for “short” languages, like
“en”, in org-export-smart-quotes-alist.
The attached patch is an attempt at remedying this. Not sure if it is the
best fix, though...
Test file:
#+language: en-gb
"Foo"
Thanks,
Rasmus

IMO, this is a bit of a kludge.
"oc.el" parses language-region tags already, although it has not been
factored out as an independent function yet. See
`org-cite--get-note-rule'. Maybe moving this part to "org-macs.el" would
be a better solution.
WDYT?
Regards,

The patch is definitely dodgy. E.g. if I have rules for both en-gb and en
the smart quote would depend on the order of ‘org-export-smart-quotes-alist’.
So a better patch is needed, indeed.
Thanks for the reference to the oc function. I will check it ASAP.
Thanks,
Rasmus
