[O] using variables in org text
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi I have defined a variable as follow #+property: var DC="/home/rkrug/tmp/CLUSTER" and I am using this path quite often in source blocks (works nicely as expected) but also in org directly, e.g. * DC path is $DC$ The DC path $DC$ is pointing to a directory. Is it possible to use the variable DC in the text as well, so that $DC$ is replaced with the value of the variable DC as defined above? In other words: how can I tell org that on export, $DC$ stands for the value of the variable DC? Cheers, Rainer PS: I know that $...$ is for LaTeX math mode - -- Rainer M.
