Re: About entering latex code in an org file

[Pierre de Buyl <pdebuyl@chem.utoronto.ca>]

Hello,

I am no expert either but I think that the automated detection of  
latex snippets (that is, no explicit $) will only enclose in $ parts  
that cannot be reproduced in text.

I suggest that if you want a complete expression like \pi_{g}  \geq   
0.05 to be translated to $\pi_{g}  \geq  0.05$ instead of $\pi$$_{g} 
$  \geq  0.05 you should do the enclosing manually.

HTH,

Pierre
