Re: [O] Is it possible to repeat a block of org-mode text on export, maybe with replacement?
Thanks everyone! Much appreciated. I think I can get what I want by fiddling with these. Thomas, I'm not sure why but yours comes out with weird indentation which makes the first line not part of the list. Eric, yours doesn't seem to create a proper numbered list at all, but is otherwise just what I'm looking for. Thorsten, yours comes out looking great but having to Emacs-stringize the text is, well, you know... Again thanks all for your helpful suggestions! On Tue, Nov 19, 2013 at 12:19 PM, Thomas S.
