Turn off html entities in md export

Turn off html entities in md export

[Rustom Mody]

Bitbucket does not allow html entities in markdown
See https://bitbucket.org/rustom/vit-projects/wiki/emacs
and search for &#

So how to turn off html entities in md export?

And if thats not available any tips on how to hook say a sed-filter to
ox-md export?

It depends on where these entities are coming from. 

Anyway, vanilla Markdown supports HTML so anything "ox-md" cannot
translate into Markdown syntax (e.g., tables) is exported as pure HTML.

See filters in (info "(org)Advanced configuration").

For systems (bitbucket is just a common example) that simply does not work
because of security or whatever reasons
See

for BB users clamoring but BB not likely to listen

In this particular case, see `org-export-with-special-strings'.

In the worst case, you might need to implement a derived export back-end
applying Bitbucket constraints.

As https://bitbucket.org/tutorials/markdowndemo/overview#markdown-header-tab
shows
bitbucket md tables are very similar to org tables (and html <table> is
disallowed)

How to say (to ox-md) "Leave tables as they are"  ?

See org-element-interpret-data and e.g. org-org-identity.

Write a derived export backend, e.g., ox-md-bb.el that will translate
tables properly according to Bitbucket rules.

You can also use a hook that will turn Org tables into Bitbucket
markdown tables and wrap them within a #+begin_md...#+end_md block.
