I'm exporting the following org file (left-side) to a LaTeX pdf file.
The org file contains the multiple dashes in the ~code~ =verbatim=
format. The exported PDF file doesn't have the correct number of dashes.
|----------------+-----------------------------------|
| Original org | Exported tex file section |
|----------------+-----------------------------------|
| | .... |
|* code | \section{code} |
| 1. ~-~ | \label{sec:org532ffa5} |
| 2. ~--~ | \begin{enumerate} |
| 3. ~---~ | \item \texttt{-} |
| 4. ~----~ | \item \texttt{-{}-} |
| 5. ~-----~ | \item \texttt{-{}--} |
| 6. ~a------b~ | \item \texttt{-{}--{}-} |
| | \item \texttt{-{}--{}--} |
|* verbatim | \item \texttt{a-{}--{}--{}-b} |
| 1. =-= | \end{enumerate} |
| 2. =--= | |
| 3. =---= | \section{verbatim} |
| 4. =----= | \label{sec:org4a05ec4} |
| 5. =-----= | \begin{enumerate} |
| 6. =a------b= | \item \texttt{-} |
| | \item \texttt{-{}-} |
| | \item \texttt{-{}--} |
| | \item \texttt{-{}--{}-} |
| | \item \texttt{-{}--{}--} |
| | \item \texttt{a-{}--{}--{}-b} |
| | \end{enumerate} |
| | ... |
|----------------+-----------------------------------|
These multiple dashes need `{}` separator in between (i.e. `-{}-`).
However, I believe that ~----~ should become \texttt{-{}-{}-{}-{}-}
(actual 4 dashes) instead of \texttt{-{}--{}-} (dash + en.dash + dash)?
It may be needed {} in between every dash. (
I read from here)
Basically what I'm saying is that. I might need the following in
order to have the correct number of dashes.
|----------------+--------------------------------------|
| Original org | Maybe it should have exported |
|----------------+--------------------------------------|
| | ... |
|* code | \section{code} |
| 1. ~-~ | \label{sec:org532ffa5} |
| 2. ~--~ | \begin{enumerate} |
| 3. ~---~ | \item \texttt{-} |
| 4. ~----~ | \item \texttt{-{}-} |
| 5. ~-----~ | \item \texttt{-{}-{}-} |
| 6. ~a------b~ | \item \texttt{-{}-{}-{}-} |
| | \item \texttt{-{}-{}-{}-{}-} |
|* verbatim | \item \texttt{a-{}-{}-{}-{}-{}-b} |
| 1. =-= | \end{enumerate} |
| 2. =--= | |
| 3. =---= | \section{verbatim} |
| 4. =----= | \label{sec:org4a05ec4} |
| 5. =-----= | \begin{enumerate} |
| 6. =a------b= | \item \texttt{-} |
| | \item \texttt{-{}-} |
| | \item \texttt{-{}-{}-} |
| | \item \texttt{-{}-{}-{}-} |
| | \item \texttt{-{}-{}-{}-{}-} |
| | \item \texttt{a-{}-{}-{}-{}-{}-b} |
| | \end{enumerate} |
| | ... |
|----------------+--------------------------------------|The possible place this bug might reside:
It's possible that while exporting, it replaces -- with -{}-.
So 4 dashes (----) has 2 -- so each couple gets replaced
with -{}- finally forming -{}--{}-.
I was suggested to report this possible bug in the following forum
question.
If this was an intentional feature I'm sorry.
