Though you could support multiple backends with a macro, too, you just
need to use lots of @'s. E.g.:


#+MACRO: sc @@latex:\textsc{$1}@@@@html:<span style="font-variant:
 small-caps;">$1</span>@@

Already in 400 {{{sc(bc)}}}, the Greeks...


That's for a quick example; better to use <span class="smallcaps"> or
something and put the CSS in a separate stylesheet, of course.
