Hello,
I would like to know how to make some sequence of characters to be
verbatim, ie that special characters lose their special meaning.
For instance in the following quote the first `-' will be interpreted as
a bullet point when exporting to HTML
#+begin_quote
- this -
#+end_quote
So I tried this:
#+begin_quote
~-~ this -
#+end_quote
but then the first `-' is not in the same font as the second one, it
looks exaclty the same as if I had used the code =xxx= font
specfication.
I also tried this:
#+begin_quote
\- this -
#+end_quote
I does not work (the first dash is not exported at all).
The same problem is for `[0]', how can you get this string not to be
interpreted as a footnote reference.
It should be possible to make the following type of things:
#+begin_verbatim
[0]
#+end_verbatim
or \verbatim{EOF}Hello - EOF
where EOF can be any string that is not found in the verbatim string. so
\verbatim{.}Hello - .
would to the same as \verbatim{xxx}Hello - xxx.
In the same vein, it would be useful to have some \relax{} macro not
expanding to anything, this way _\relax{} some underlining with
underlined leading spaces_ would work.
BR,
Vincent.

Hi,
Typographically, isn't what you want here an *en dash*, rather than a
hyphen? When the dash is set off by a space, that is usually the case.
Try:
#+begin_quote
-- this --
#+end_quote
(don't forget to add a space after the last double hyphen, or it will
not be converted)
Cheers,
CM

Thank you for your quick reply, this is not exactly what I was looking
for. What you propose will encapsulate all the text into a
<pre class="example" > </pre> block. This means that the font and
background color are changed. I would not like this to happen, just the
characters to lose their special meaning.
Probably my initial email was confusing because I used the term
"verbatim" which in LaTeX changes the font. What I am looking for is to
make some text to be interpreted litterally, without having all the
surrounding formatters to be overloaded.
The dash is not a very good example because most of the time the
solution is just not to place any dash at the beginning of a line.
However I had the following issue: I wanted to quote some text (so using
#+begin/end_quote), and this text was beginning with a dash, then I
didn't know how to escape the dash.
The issue which I meet more often is when there are some `[0]' which I
don't want to be interpreted as footnotes, so I was proposing some
general solution like
\verbatim{EOF}In reference [0] EOF.
Another solution would be to have a \relax{} macro, then the following
would also work
In reference [\relax{}0]
\relax would also make it for like for dashes:
#+begin_quote
\relax{}- this dash is not a bullet mark
#+end_quote
Well, there are several ways to solve the issue. I am not sure which is
better.

The only other thing that works today that I'm aware of is you surround
your text with equal signs as in =[0]= but this also probably doesn't do
exactly what you want for both LaTeX and HTML export. This uses \texttt
in LaTeX and <code>...</code> in HTML.
In HTML you're free to defined CSS for the <code> block but you won't
end up with a verbatim block in LaTeX. I proposed the two previous
examples because preceeding the text with ': ' creates
a \begin{verbatim} block in LaTeX.
If you document is targeted only for LaTeX export then you can use LaTeX
macros directly in the source.

Bernt
