use math notation in template

use math notation in template

Hi

I'm trying to convert an article I'm writing in markdown into a tex file 
using a template provided by the journal (Oxford Bioinformatics)

The template they provide includes math notation for superscript in the 
author list, which throws of pandoc that expects a variable name. The math 
notation is of the form:

$^{\text{\sfb 1,2,}*}$

and the error I get is:

pandoc: "template" (line 13, column 58):
unexpected "^"
expecting letter

Is there any way to tell pandoc to ignore these math notations?

best Thomas

Any literal $s in a template should be escaped as $$.
See the README under Templates.
