Re: [O] LaTeX export: inline markup underscore problem

[Thomas S. Dye]

Aloha Mauro,

On my system I define a citep link:

#+source: define-citep-link

#+begin_src emacs-lisp :results silent

    (org-add-link-type 

     "citep" 'ebib

     (lambda (path desc format)

       (cond

        ((eq format 'html)

         (format "(<cite>%s</cite>)" path))

        ((eq format 'latex)

         (if (or (not desc) (equal 0 (search "citep:" desc)))

               (format "\\citep{%s}" path)

               (format "\\citep[%s]{%s}" desc path)

  )))))

#+end_src

then the following Org-mode source:

Hawaiian archaeology's response to the late Roger Green's call for an

investigation of diachronic settlement patterns

[[citep:green84:_settl_patter_studies_ocean]] has been slow and difficult.

exports as:

Hawaiian archaeology's response to the late Roger Green's call for an

investigation of diachronic settlement patterns

\citep{green84:_settl_patter_studies_ocean} has been slow and difficult.

Perhaps you could post a minimal example that doesn't work for you?

Note that this solution doesn't depend on ebib.  It is perfectly OK to enter the bibliography key by hand if you prefer.

On your other observation: I don't use underscores in headlines, so hadn't run across the limitation in the cross references that you mention.  I don't know if there is any way around this.  If you do find a way, please feel free to add the solution to the LaTeX export tutorial.

All the best,

Tom

The code the OP cited passes desc to \cite{}.  The code I pointed to

passes path to \cite{}.  It does this to get around the problem of

escaped underscores, if I remember correctly.  In any case, I use this

code with bibliography keys that include underscores, so it should

work for the OP.

I still don't quite understand, so obviously I'm missing something

fundamental - but I'll read your tutorial completely first (great

tutorial btw!) and try some things out.

Thomas, I also do not understand your reply, sorry. I have tried to
implement your solution with ebib, but it is not working. Well,
personally I do not use ebib, so it would be more elegant for me do
not depend on it. Anyway, I think I have to invest more time to better
understand this ebib-oriented solution to underscore.

In addition, I also find out that the cross-references
(http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-latex-export.html#sec-16)
do not work either when the reference has underscore in it.

Thanks,
Mauro
