bug#49040: 27.1; Org Radio Tables Do Not Repect org-export-with-sub-superscripts

[Spaulding, Jeff]

The variable org-export-with-sub-superscripts determines if '^' and '_' are

interpreted as super and subscripts during export.  When set to nil or "{}",

this works as intended when exporting a normal org file.

 

When using radio tables in a LaTeX file, this variable does not affect the

table translation.

 

To reproduce:

 

Start Emacs with -Q and run (require 'org) in the scratch buffer.

 

Create a simple .tex file that contains a radio table.  Ensure the radio table

contains underscores and carots.  Set the variable

org-export-with-sub-superscripts to nil.  (Alternatively, I will upload a test

file with appropriate file-local variables once this bug is accepted.)

 

Press M-S-: and evaluate the _expression_ (orgtbl-mode).

 

Navigate to the table and press C-c C-c (if this doesn't work - it's

unreliable at times - do M-x orgtbl-send-table).  The radio table will be

filled in with \textsubscript{} and \textsuperscript{} directives.

 

This behavior is inconsistent with org's normal export mechanism, which does

respect the value of this variable.
