How does one escape something in a text that is an org-command
eg
I wanted to write
<<Something>>

It vanished from the export because its a link-target!

You can customize `org-activate-links' so that radio links are
not activated -- not tested, but my assumption is that the exporter
should handle this fine.

There is also `org-export-filter-radio-target-functions'.

Thanks Bastien that will work in this case
However I am also looking for something more generic:

When there is something in my document which normally looks like an
org command, is there any generic way of saying "This particular
command-like thing is not a command"

eg in C a backslash in strings (and in some cases a %) is an escape
character

Is there no such general (set of) concepts for org?

Mark it verbatim or use an export snippet??

Exporting this:

* Start

Verbatim:

: <<headline>>

Export-snippet:

@@ascii:<<headline>>@@

* headline

to ASCII yields this:

1 Start
=======

  Verbatim:

  ,----
  | <<headline>>
  `----

  Export-snippet:

  <<headline>>


2 headline
==========
