Re: [O] Splitting up inline LaTeX

[John Kitchin]

I would use links for this purpose, which org-mode would get right across lines. For instance, here is a cite link: https://github.com/jkitchin/jmax/blob/prelude/jorg-bib.el#L332

so you use cite:bibkey1,bibkey2 or [[cite:bibkey1, bibkey2]] instead of \cite{bibkey1,bibkey2}. At export time, the link is converted to the latex they way you need it.

The code at the link above does a lot more than that and may not be directly suitable for what you are doing, e.g. when I click on the link, it opens my bibtex file at the entry I clicked on, etc... See this page: http://orgmode.org/manual/Adding-hyperlink-types.html for another example of making your own links.

Hi!

I'm using org-mode with the LaTeX export to write a book. I'm having issues with inline LaTeX citations (\cite{some label}) and glossary references (\gls{some label}). When the label (the thing in between the curly braces) is split across lines, the org-mode LaTeX exporter escapes the curly braces, so I get something like:

the beginning of the line \cite\{the first part of the label
the latter part of the label\} the rest of the line

The extra escaping of the curlies makes LaTeX very unhappy. I would like to teach org-mode that stuff like that needs to be kept together, much like $math mode stuff$. I tried reading the manual for advice, but those are neither inline math (so not $$ delimited) nor an environment (\begin{} and \end{} delimited), which are the two cases that the manual covers.

thanks in advance
