Hi, In a certain org file I put this line into the export options:
#+begin_src org-mode #+TEXT: \vspace*{0.5in} #+end_src The starred version is necessary, obviously, since this comes before any text, and LaTeX will ignore a plain old \vspace{} in those cases. This currently gets escaped as \vspace*\{0.5in\}, which keeps it from working. I noticed that regular \vspace{} is not escaped, so I went looking in org-latex.el, but can't begin to figure out which regexp in which function is protecting the unstarred version, but not the starred version. Is this fixable? Thanks! Eric
