TL;DR: use something like this: :code:`some text`
I have been using org-mode for my blog posts lately. It provides all
the mark-up I need. Some days ago, I needed to cross-link to one of my
posts. nikola (the python based static site generator used to power
this blog) has a option just for that. (Refer to
this)
I tried to be smart, and used equivalent org notation, but it didn't work.
So I converted that post to ReST. (Aside: ReST is lot more powerful
especially with reStructuredText extensions. But I may not need these,
most of the times, and org mode suffices.)
Now here is the problem.
I am used to org notation (inside of two equal-to signs) at times.
org-nikola plugin converts it to <code> HTML block, which I like. But
nikola itself converts equivalent ``this`` notation in ReST to
pre. HTML <code> blocks look better (due to syntax highlighting)
than pre blocks.
ReST has :code: notation, used for multi-line code block, but I
couldn't (till now) find a way to use code block inline.
But finally I found this
writing about ReST in orgmode is confusing. I ended up using ReST style of links instead of org style
