Hi Eric, I wrote in my reply that a restart of Emacs is necessary to make the work. The reason is that the information in these variables must be converted into complicated regexp, and that only happens if you do it through customize (which sets the variable and then calls a hook to do the necessary updates), or if you set the variables in Lisp *before* org.el is loaded. The docstring of org-emphasis-alist says: "Use customize to modify this, or restart Emacs after changing it." If that is not clear enough, what should I write there? - Carsten
