If you’d really just rather hand-code your LaTeX constructs, BBT makes that possible:
<script>...</script>
(<pre>...</pre>
will also work for historical reasons) markers. BBT will
convert to/from unicode and (un)escape where required but will pass whatever is enclosed in the pre tags unchanged.#LaTeX
(case-sensitive!) will have all fields exported as if they’re wrapped in
<script>...</script>
, so you can include LaTeX markup in your items.In names, you can force first names like Philippe
to be exported to {\relax Ph}ilippe
(which causes it to get initial Ph.
rather than P.
in styles that do initials) by adding a end of guarded area character between Ph
and ilippe
.
