Re: [Orgmode] [feature request] Quotation marks in LaTeX export
OK, thanks, I will take a look at that.
Hmmm, I also see that csquotes is not always present in
distributions... :(
So this really has to be optional

(copy-sequence (cadr l))
(org-if-unprotected-1
(replace-match rpl t t) quote-rpl)))
)
--8<---cut here---end--->8---
It's a static setup, just an altered clone of the code in org-
latex.el.
I have not the skills to make a switch out of this. One has to add the
header \usepackage[babel]{csquotes}. So, an option has to make sure
that
csquotes as well as babel is loaded with the correct language
settings:
\usepackage[english,ngerman]{babel} in my case. If connected to babel,
csquotes will also take care to pick the correct quotation marks if
the
language is switched in the midst of the document.

Hi Sven,
can you send me a path, preferably with an option to turn this on and
off?
Thanks.

I have seen that org-latex.el links the quotation marks to the LANG

On my system, I just changed the respective code in org-latex.el to
\enquote{}. It's working and it's easy. But it will be gone with the
next update.

Hi Scott, it is worth a lot - more often that not a
second voice like this is what is making the difference...

[Orgmode] [feature request] Quotation marks in LaTeX export
Hello List
Quotation marks like "these" are converted to ``these'' by
org-export-latex. It would be much better to use \enquote{these}.
The \enquote tag belongs to the powerful csquotes package. Not only does
this package chose the correct quotation mark style for the document
language as defined by babel, it also supports nested quotations, e.g.:
He said: \enquote{This a \enquote{nonsense} sentence.}
would be rendered as:
He said: "This is a `nonsense' sentence."
Using \enquote as a default translation would make things much easier
for non-English users. Is there a way to configure that? Or at least to
let org-export-latex produce German quotation marks: "`xxx"' instead of
``xxx''?

Sven
