Hi folks,
I also have been using the \obeylines technique. But it seems a bit
crufty. I do lots of work in LaTeX, so I have a sense of the perils
involved in LaTeX linebreaking. Unfortunately, I have zero experience
with elisp, so I can't tackle this (yet).
The problem with the \obeylines hack is that if it's not properly
closed with a final bracket, your file breaks. But how do you keep
this final bracket in place? You can't move headlines around with the
usual reckless abandon, because there's no way (that I know of) to
keep that final bracket locked at the end of your text file. Unless
you want to enter an \obeylines within every headline ...
So I would give a +1 to \n:t giving at least rudimentary linebreak
support for PDF export, rather than silently failing. As someone who
regularly has to export the same file to both HTML and PDF, I would
rather have an option that works 90% of the time and sometimes
requires an arcane LaTeX fix (and is documented as such), than
/always/ have to use an arcane LaTeX fix.
Thanks,
Bill Powell
