Hi List,

I want to include a literal un= derscore in LaTeX export, like FOO_BAR. Right now I get:
FOO$_{\t= ext{BAR}}$

Contrary to this stackexchange question, if I try to e= scape the underscore with a backslash, I get:
FOO$\backslash$$_{\= text{BAR}}

I've found that I can set=C2=A0org-ex= port-with-sub-superscripts to "{}" to avoid this problem, but I&#= 39;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' t= o
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,

That allows me to use a_b for the majority of my use cases, but still allows {subscripts} in the rare cases when I need them. I'm not sure how useful it would be but maybe there should be a setting to accommodate the inverse case: mostly subscripts a_b but allow literal underscores using some additional markup.
