\\ in headlines

\\ in headlines

[Vikas Rawal]

Isn’t \\ in headlines expected to cause a line break?

It gets exported in LaTeX to $\backslash$

Is this intended behaviour?

Thanks,

Vikas

Recent update means you have to put it in a macro...

#+TITLE: Foo @@latex:\\@@ Bar

Or:
#+MACRO: NEWLINE @@latex:\\@@ @@html:<br>@@
#+TITLE: Foo {{{NEWLINE}}} Bar

For some instances of "foo" and "bar", this may be a nicer solution:

#+title: foo
#+subtitle: bar

  (member 'line-break (org-element-restriction 'headline)) => nil

I don't know the rational.

Because, in Org, line breaks can only happen at the end of line, and
headlines are only 1 line long.

This solution works for headlines as well.

Thanks.
