Hi List, I want to include a literal underscore in LaTeX export, like FOO_BAR. Right now I get: FOO$_{\text{BAR}}$ Contrary to this stackexchange question , if I try to escape the underscore with a backslash, I get: FOO$\backslash$$_{\text{BAR}} I've found that I can set org-export-with-sub-superscripts to "{}" to avoid this problem, but I'd rather escape individual underscores on a case by case basis. Is this possible? As an aside, section 11.7.2 of the org info says "Configure the variable `org-use-sub-superscripts' to change this convention." Fortunately the docstring for org-use-sub-superscripts points out that display and export functionality are now controlled by separate variables. I would propose a patch to update the info to clarify that two variables are used, but I'm not currently set up to do so. Regards, Jake
