Rendering of => and -> as arrows in exports?

Rendering of => and -> as arrows in exports?

[Geralt]

Hi,

I'd like it if => and -> would be exported as if they were \Rightarrow
and respectively \rightarrow.
Of course it should be optional (but I think enabled by default is
what most people desire). What do you think?

Rendering auf <- could be treated in that way, too but <= is also
lower-equal and therefore I suggest to not render it as an arrow,
besides I don't think that the left-arrows are commonly used in
plain-text.

Hi,

the following hack works quite well for me:

(add-hook 'org-export-latex-after-blockquotes-hook 'org-export-latex-arrows)
(defun org-export-latex-arrows ()
  (goto-char (point-min))
  (while (search-forward "==>" nil t)
    (org-if-unprotected
     (replace-match (org-export-latex-protect-string "$\\rightarrow$") nil t)))
  )

This shouldn't be too hard to generalize further.

Cheers,

Valentin
