Nicolas and All,

One further question regarding your suggestion of the use of filter for
special blocks in export:

I just found out that, if I close Emacs and relaunch it, all variables for
filter (i.e., 'org-export-filter-*') are not defined. As a result, the
following elisp codes for the workaround based on both your suggestion and
the filter example in the manual causes void variable error (i.e.,
"Symbol's value as variable is void:
org-export-filter-special-block-function"):


;; workaround solution (until 8.3.0) for case-sensitve handling of
special-block for IEEE LaTeX class
(defun my-latex-filter-ieeekeywords (text backend info)
  "Upcase 'IEEE' in IEEEkeywords environment in LaTeX export."
  (when (org-export-derived-backend-p backend 'latex)
(replace-regexp-in-string "ieeekeywords" "IEEEkeywords" text)))

(add-to-list 'org-export-filter-special-block-functions
 'my-latex-filter-ieeekeywords)


It turns out that those variables are defined only after exporting org file
into LaTeX.

Again, any advice on propor addition of custom filter functions in the
configuration file would be greatly appreciated; maybe the said example in
the manual needs to be updated as well.

Regards,
Joseph
