Subject: how to get verbatim text with line breaks
Date: Wed, 3 Nov 2021 15:58:40 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <07d4475a-d5bc-ea04-0c99-302506c24479@binghamton.edu> (raw)

I have this in an org file

I want to export to ASCII text and have it look exactly like that, 5 lines.

Doing nothing, I get 3 lines

Trying various source and example blocks gets me partway there:


#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
0,Mon [start_plus_0] at 03:00 PM
30,Mon [start_plus_0] at 03:30 PM
60,Mon [start_plus_0] at 04:00 PM
90,Mon [start_plus_0] at 04:30 PM
120,Mon [start_plus_0] at 05:00 PM
#+END_EXAMPLE

produces

| 120,Mon [start_plus_0] at 05:00 PM

5 lines, but I don't want the leading pipe characters, the comma, or the
4 hyphens


#+BEGIN_VERSE
0,Mon [start_plus_0] at 03:00 PM
30,Mon [start_plus_0] at 03:30 PM
60,Mon [start_plus_0] at 04:00 PM
90,Mon [start_plus_0] at 04:30 PM
120,Mon [start_plus_0] at 05:00 PM
#+END_VERSE

yields

      0,Mon [start_plus_0] at 03:00 PM
      30,Mon [start_plus_0] at 03:30 PM
      60,Mon [start_plus_0] at 04:00 PM
      90,Mon [start_plus_0] at 04:30 PM
      120,Mon [start_plus_0] at 05:00 PM

5 lines, but with undesired indentation


Nor does #+BEGIN_VERBATIM  or #+BEGIN_SRC text   give me what I am
looking for.

Grateful for suggestions.

Thanks
