Subject: Re: LaTeX export: underscores and the syntax package
Date: Fri, 13 May 2011 21:51:59 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <97BE4DB8-21C0-4B5F-90A7-EF6ADB173782@comcast.net> (raw)

And I find the same problem with export to HTML.  I have many variables and paths that have underscores in them.  The underscores all are shown as subscripts.   I don't want to have to go thru all my org files and escape the underscore.  

How do I make the underscore be a subscript only in math mode?
