Hi,
Org-mode version 7.9.2 (release_7.9.2-441-gf287ab @ /home/myles/.emacs.d/plugins/org-mode/lisp/)
Can anyone tell me please why (in the examples below) {} exports fine
but {{}} exports as \{\{\}\} ? Am I meant to wrap these in
#+begin_latex blocks?
In my .org file:
\tikzset{help lines/.style=very thin}
\tikzset{help grid/.style={help lines,color=blue!50}}
In the resulting .tex file
\tikzset{help lines/.style=very thin}
\tikzset\{help grid/.style=\{help lines,color=blue!50\}\}
Thanks,
Myles

You're writing LaTeX code in an Org buffer. This is only possible to
a limited extent. In particular, these lines should indeed go within
a LaTeX block. Otherwise, they will be protected to appear as-is in the
output.

Thanks, just confirming that was helpful, me and my emacs were confused
somehow and #+begin_latex was coming out as \begin{latex}, it may have
been a missing bracket.

Within a LaTeX block (#+begin_latex) or within a Babel block for LaTeX
language (#+begin_src latex)? Do you make a difference?

There's a big difference.
#+begin_latex means "paste this code unmodified in the latex back-end,
and only in the latex back-end". Nothing is evaluated.
With a #+begin_src latex block, depending on :exports parameter, you can
produce something (in this case, probably an image file) and create
a link valid in any back-end, as long as it supports the file format.
Both are possible.

I realize having taken the bad habit of only using #+begin_src latex blocks
even for code that only matters for the LaTeX back-end (such as TikZ
decorations). By carefully using the Babel options, it comes down to the same
effect/behavior, but, OK, that's NOT the Right Way To Do!
Best regards,
Seb

I guess I do not understand.
Using git pull today,
(org-export-to-buffer 'e-latex "scratch.tex") exports this
#+begin_latex
\begin{displaymath}
\mbox{a}=\frac{b}{1 + c}
\end{displaymath}
#+end_latex
as this
\begin{latex}
\begin{displaymath}
\mbox{a}=\frac{b}{1 + c}
\end{displaymath}
\end{latex}
So how do I get rid of the enclosing lines:
\begin{latex}
\end{latex}
??

I just restarted my emacs and the export went as it should without the
offending
\begin{latex}
\end{latex}
lines.
Likely someting weird in my setup caused this.
Sorry for the noise.
