I am making heavy use of latex strikeout for a report I'm preparing in org
mode. I defined a macro for the necessary latex snippet, but the argument
gets truncated on export.
MWE:
----
* Section
{{{stk(The argument for this macro is several lines long. It seems
that after a certain length, the macro argument gets truncated, as the
tex output from exporting this org buffer contains a properly
terminated strikeout block with only part of this text.)}}}
#+MACRO: stk @@latex:\sout{$1}@@
----
C-c C-e l L produces:
----
....
\sout{The argument for this macro is several lines long. It seems
that after a certain length}
% Emacs 24.3.1 (Org mode 8.2.7c)
----
I see no mention of any reason for this in the macro node of the manual or
on list archives. Am I doing something wrong or is it a bug?
Note:
org-plus-contrib is an installed package.
Status: Installed in `.../.emacs.d/elpa/org-plus-contrib-20140901/'.

Arguments to the macro are separated by commas. Your text gets
truncated at the first comma.
From the manual:
/============================================================\
| You can define text snippets with |
| |
| #+MACRO: name replacement text $1, $2 are arguments |
| |
| which can be referenced {{{name(arg1, arg2)}}}. |
\============================================================/
hth,
Tom

Ah, of course. Right under my nose, but since I "knew" I only had one
argument, I didn't even think about it.
Thanks for the quick reply.
