Re: Bug: [Orgmode] bug in latex export [6.34b]

[Carsten Dominik]

Hi, this is not a bug.  Org-mode treats laTeX environments as  
implicitly literal.
As we have discussed a few days ago here, you can work around it using

#+LaTeX: {}\begin{multicol}[2]

- Carsten

P.S. this is becoming another subject for a FAQ which should cover both
     org-special-blocks.el and the workaround I show above.
     Would anyone like to volunteer writing it?  Thanks.
