When the dash is set off by a space, that is usually the case. Try: #+begin_quote -- this -- #+end_quote (don't forget to add a space after the last double hyphen, or it will not be converted) Cheers, CM Vincent Belaïche wrote: > Hello, > > I would like to know how to make some sequence of characters to be > verbatim, ie that special characters lose their special meaning. > > For instance in the following quote the first `-' will be interpreted as > a bullet point when exporting to HTML > > #+begin_quote > - this - > #+end_quote > > So I tried this: > > #+begin_quote > ~-~ this - > #+end_quote > > but then the first `-' is not in the same font as the second one, it > looks exaclty the same as if I had used the code =xxx= font > specfication. > > > I also tried this: > > #+begin_quote > \- this - > #+end_quote > > I does not work (the first dash is not exported at all). > > The same problem is for `[0]', how can you get this string not to be > interpreted as a footnote reference. > > It should be possible to make the following type of things: > > #+begin_verbatim > [0] > #+end_verbatim > > or \verbatim{EOF}Hello - EOF > > where EOF can be any string that is not found in the verbatim string. so > > \verbatim{.}Hello - . > > would to the same as \verbatim{xxx}Hello - xxx. > > > In the same vein, it would be useful to have some \relax{} macro not > expanding to anything, this way _\relax{} some underlining with > underlined leading spaces_ would work. > > BR, > Vincent. > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Emacs-orgmode mailing list > Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list. > Emacs-orgmode@gnu.org > http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-orgmode > -- Christian Moe E-mail: mail@christianmoe.com Website: http://christianmoe.com
