I've tried this:

return {
  {
    Para = function (elem)
      if elem.content[1].text == "{{helloworld}}" then
        return pandoc.RawBlock('html','<div>abc</div>')
      else
        return elem
      end
    end,
  }
}

but that only gets rid of {{helloworld}}, it doesn't replace it with anything. Sadly this doens't work for "==", i.e. those don't disappear.

I've been trying to replace markdown/Obsidian highlights "==" either with something that LaTeX can use e.g. \hl or just delete it/replace it with nothing, but I can't figure out how to do this.

 

I've tried this:

function Str (str) 

str.text = string.upper(str.text)

return str

end

 

But I can't even figure out where I'm meant to put my own text?

 

How do I rpelace == with " "?

 

Thanks!
