Using org-mode version 7.93f, when exporting to ASCII it doesn't respect
the current fill column. Can this be enforced?

Also, I've noticed that org doesn't remove verbatim tags (=verbatim=)
but removes BEGIN_EXAMPLE blocks and presumably other BEGIN_xxx blocks;
is this by design?

Miguel,

Upgrade to current org-mode (version 8.2.6) before you do anything else.

Then modify `org-ascii-text-width' to suit your needs.

,----
| 
| org-ascii-text-width is a variable defined in `ox-ascii.el'.

|   Automatically becomes buffer-local when set.

| Documentation:
| Maximum width of exported text.
| This number includes margin size, as set in
| `org-ascii-global-margin'.
| 
| You can customize this variable.

Same deal - upgrade. Then =xyz= becomes `xyz' on export.

HTH,

Chuck

Thanks very much for the tips -- they certainly helped!

interesting that it worked for you.  i am using 8.2.10 and ascii
export does not fill.  it seems to wrap single lines but not fill
entire paragraphs.
