Say I want to memorize the cloze deletion syntax of org-drill by this topic,
The problem here is when the answer is revealed the text is only displayed partially like it's been interpreted as a cloze deletion.
Any tricks or suggestions on this kind of "meta" stuff ?
As I learn more about Org mode, I'm able to answer this question myself.
Org provides Latex-like syntax for special symbols. To make the example in question works, we could write the answer as
[answer\vert\vert{}optional hint]
or
[answer\vbar\vbar{}optional hint]
Curly braces are used to terminate a symbol. Before drill sessions, (org-toggle-pretty-entities) or C-c C-x \ to render these notations into UTF-8 characters.
