With the following file (a.tex):

------------------------------------------------------------
* Intro

This is an example file that I would like to export
Note that the URL has a tilde in it.

  http://www.stat.uni-muenchen.de/~leisch/Sweave/FAQ.html

------------------------------------------------------------

When I do "C-c C-e d" in this buffer, the latex -> pdf exporter displays
a pdf, but I see that the tilde in the URL appears above the following
character (l).  If I click on the link it works just fine and takes me
to the page.

In the tex file, I see it has been exported as:

  \href{http://www.stat.uni-muenchen.de/~leisch/Sweave/FAQ.html}
{http://www.stat.uni-muenchen.de/\~leisch/Sweave/FAQ.html}

(my line breaking added). Is the above expected behaviour?  Do I have to
mark up my URLs differently?  Org mode recognises it as a url, judging
by the font locking.



I often use url to format URLs, i.e. this works just fine:
  \url{http://www.stat.uni-muenchen.de/~leisch/Sweave/FAQ.html}

Thanks, Stephen

Hi Stephen,

I recently experienced this issue while adding a reference in a beamer  
presentation using org-mode. It isn't elegant, but my workaround was to use  
\sim instead of the tilde character, at least for what is actually  
displayed in the document - you will still need to use tilde for the actual  
URL link.

Chris

Thanks for this Chris.  My workaround right now is to do the following
in .org buffer:

#+LaTeX: \url{http://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~uno/lp.html}

This handles the URLs just as I'd want to.  (I do hate typing '#+LaTeX:'
though, but that's for me to deal with!)

I'm also using org here to make a beamer presentation, and in general it
works quite well.  I do find myself wishing to resort to latex commands
a lot though ... but still I do like the feel of org for presentations.



Best wishes, Stephen
