Aloha all,
After reading through the documentation fairly carefully, link
descriptions are yielding unexpected results. Perhaps I missed
something?
I have a link defined for citep:
#+source: define-citep-link
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(org-add-link-type
"citep" 'ebib
(lambda (path desc format)
(cond
((eq format 'latex)
(format "\\citep[%s]{%s}" desc path)))))
#+end_src
With input like [[citep:jones][Jones]], it works fine, yielding
\citep[Jones]{jones}.
My hope, however, is to pass page numbers in the description so with
[[citep:jones][123]] I get \citep[123]{jones}. When I have a
description like this, I get [[citep:jones]$^{123}$] instead.
This looks like a bug to me (at least I wish it would work to pass
page numbers to the \citep command). Have I overlooked a restriction
on link descriptions?
This is a bug, but not related to links: The LaTeX exporter turns a
sequence like:
][\d+]
into
]$^{\d+}$
Where \d+ is a placeholder for one or more numbers.
The question I cannot answer (yet?) is: Why?
Best,

Perhaps it has to do with footnotes? That's an org-mode environment
with square brackets and, in some instances, a superscript number.
Whether or not to set the footnote number superscript or some other
way would ideally be handled by the LaTeX class, so shouldn't be
something the org-mode LaTeX exporter worries about.
In my LaTeX experience, directly set superscripts outside of math are
found in area measurements, e.g. 10~m$^[2}$, but not much else.
These musings are my way of saying that I can't think of a reason ][\d
+] should set a superscript in the LaTeX export.
All the best,
Tom
