I think the usual approach is to use a zero width space.

See `Section 17.12 Escape Character` of the org manual.

Here is an example:

Type `*S*` then  `C-x 8  ZERO WIDTH SPACE ` then `port`

On LaTeX export, this renders as 

`\textbf{S}​port`

HTH,

I don’t know a pure org method, but if this is for LaTeX, you can use:

@@latex:\textbf{@@S@@latex:}\nobreak\hspace{0pt}@@pecific.

(for the cleaner looking method: https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/267806 )

If this is HTML, you can CSS it:

#+html: .first-letter-bold li::first-letter {font-weight: bold}

#+attr_html: :class first-letter-bold
- Specific
- Measurable
- ...

See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/::first-letter

Its part of a section explaining SMART goals.

Any ideas please?

When result is an image, you can use #+caption and other affiliated
keywords to control how the image is rendered in LaTeX. So, yes, you can
use LaTeX source block.

It will be also somewhat easier if you want to re-generate previews of
the rendered image only.

However, direct LaTeX is (naturally) more flexible. If you need some
non-trivial typesetting, you may have better luck with direct LaTeX.

In some way, presentation can be viewed as export - if you only display
things selectively. So, :exports header argument may indeed be used.
Or you can use a custom header argument...

For example, you can use ox-org exporter.
Or you can pass PARAMS argument to `org-babel-execute-src-block' to
override :results header argument value.

How should I handle babel configuration of exports & results in Dslide?

[Psionic K]

Because live presentations are a bit different from exporting
documents, I'm not always sure how options should apply.  I'm not an
expert on many of these options and am not sure what will feel
consistent for users.

For context, a user wants :exports results or :exports none to hide
the babel block / results.  Issue is here:
https://github.com/positron-solutions/dslide/issues/1  Is their idea
consistent with the expectations and usages elsewhere?

To implement options from the Dslide configuration, how can I
explicitly change babel block behavior from an Elisp program?

What function is best for cleaning up results of a single block?  I'm
using `org-babel-remove-result'.  Whenever the babel args are :results
replace, I am clearing them on that block both at the start fo the
slide and when going backwards.  Should this behavior interact with
:exports?

As you can see, feedback will be helpful in reconciling my
understanding of the docs versus users actual expectations and common
usage patterns.

Thanks

Re: Managing acronyms in an Org-mode document

Hi, answers inline

Currently I'm using acronyms in Documents which I handle with *TeX as my
background processor. So, it's basically embedding the LaTeX \ac* commands
in the org-file. But I'm thinking of a module to do this in org-native
mode.

Most of what you say is already there in e.g. the acronyms package in LaTeX
and I have an ancient attempt at this written in C which made it's way to
the venerable latex2rtf program. It could make a nice summer project. I
could share the notes I have taken until now with basic ideas.

Best, /PA
