Hello all--
I'm interested in being able to export stacked typefaces. This org file:
* headline
*bold* /italic/ _underlined_
*/bold italic/* *_bold underlined_* /_italic underlined_/
produces this xhtml:
<h1 class="title">test</h1>
<h2>headline</h2>
<p><b>bold</b> <i>italic</i> <u>underlined</u>
</p><ul>
<li>
/bold italic/* *<sub>bold</sub> underlined<sub>*</sub>
/<sub>italic</sub> underlined_/
</li>
</ul>
I would like to see something like
<h1 class="title">test</h1>
<h2>headline</h2>
<p><b>bold</b> <i>italic</i> <u>underlined</u>
</p><ul>
<li>
<b><i>bold italic</i></b> <b><u>bold underlined</u></b> <i><u>italic
underlined</u></i>
</li>
</ul>
One can even imagine stacking all of the typeface indicators, like
*/_really fancy text_/*. I can understand if there's some restriction
on the order that the indicators should be stacked in (e.g., _/.../_
instead of /_..._/), but I still hope that there is some syntax for
applying multiple typeface markups to the same string.
Thanks,
/au

I have never even once in my lifetime applied two different styles to a
piece of text. What is the application of this?

Looking through a few O'Reilly books on my shelf, I see that different
books use constant-width bold (<b><pre>text</pre></b>) and
constant-width italics (<i><pre>text</pre></i>) to indicate where a user
should enter input in example code.
I've been writing a tutorial for use in my lab, and have wanted the
ability to typographically distinguish between optional and required
parts of our in-house scripting language. I'd like to say
All *bold* terms are properties of a certain part. All
/*italic bold*/ terms are required properties of that part.
I don't know if this request is common enough to warrant inclusion, or
how much of a pain it would be to add to the parser, but that's the
first example off the top of my head of where I'd use this kind of
formatting.
Thanks,
/au

Yes, that is true, O'Reilly books use some excessive styling - I guess
it makes sense in these cases.
Generalizing the emphasis stuff is tricky, and I am worried that the
regular expressions will match unintentionally.
However, I have now made this configurable, a test version is at
http://www.astro.uva.nl/~dominik/Tools/org/org-testemphasize.zip
In this version you can configure your own text styling through the
option `org-emphasis-alist'. Before I release this, some tweaking of
the other new option `org-emphasis-regexp-components' might be
necessary. In that option you can also define the number of newlines
you wish to allow in a single emphasized expression (default is one for
now, don't increase this too much because of a potentially significant
performance penalty). Also you can ask for stacked styling in that
variable.
For now, stacked styling is turned off by default.
