I though about escaping first opening square bracket, but only if the item doesn't start with an export snippet. E.g, - [item --> \item\relax [item but, - @@latex:[\blacktriangle]@@ item --> \item [\blacktriangle] Unfortunately, I can't see how to not break your documents if we fix the problem. > In fact, I had started preparing an email to ask the check lists make > use of this feature to make these lists look nicer when exported to > LaTeX.

This is orthogonal to the issue at hand. The problem is not the checkbox but what comes after. IOW, this feature can be implemented with or without fixing the bug above (also, a filter can do the job). Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou
