(usually, we would use a syntax like "menu:menu entry" but this is interpreted by org as an internal link?) We find that: (1) File\rarrOpen does not work: \rarr is not recognized (2) File\rarr Open leaves a blank space before the "Open" (3) Datei\rarr=D6ffnen works as expected - but only if \rarr is followed by a special =20 character like an Umlaut This leads to the more general question on how to deliminate a Tex-=20 like fragment without "side effects". It is also important for =20 inserting non-breaking space as (4) Do\nbsp Not\nbsp Break will not work because of the additional spaces (is there a better way =20= to insert "nbsp"?). (5) \alpha\nbsp\beta does work as expected Many thanks in advance, Stefan --=20 Dr. Stefan Vollmar, Dipl.-Phys.
