So we have now: | Org | HTML | LaTeX | |-----+---------+-------| | \- | ­ | \- | | " " |   | ~ | | -- | – | -- | | --- | — | --- | (Please note that you can already obtain the HTML ­   and friends by inserting \shy \nbsp etc. But not having to bother about special character names in the source file is certainly the right direction.) I removed the idea of using the tilde character `~' for inerting a non-breakable space in Org source file because: - this is the function of Emacs non-breakable space character ` ' - the tilde char can be used in several other places, and we need to keep the handling of special characters as simple as possible... - this seems too close to the LaTeX convention. So now: do people think this conversion table is okay? Too complex? Incomplete? Unnecessary? -- Bastien
