Subject: quotation marks in LaTeX (again)
Date: Mon, 4 Oct 2010 16:00:07 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <AANLkTimPXpqj=VEmQcjCQ=EMW3z87w-a2T9SWNf4JFTP@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
There's been some talk about quotation marks when exporting to LaTeX,
but I've noticed some issues in addition (I think) to those mentioned
by others.
"'a quote' inside a quote"
is exported to LaTeX as
``'a quote' inside a quote''
but should be
``\,`a quote' inside a quote''
Similarly,
"a quote that ends with 'a quote'"
is exported as
``a quote that ends with `a quote'''
but should be
``a quote that ends with `a quote'\,''
Implementing the \enquote solution proposed by Sven Bretfeld would a
fix for this, but that would probably have to be optional. So I was
working on a regexp fix for this, but then I realized that there's a
host of cases where the beginning quote isn't recognized as beginning
because there isn't whitespace in front of it, such as when a quote
starts a parenthetical ("like this"). Maybe the solution is to use
the list of "allowed chars in pre" from
org-emphasis-regexp-components?
