Thanks Eric, this works.  I do agree that the implemented syntax is
not org-like but more latex-like.  To be more org-like, could we use
parentheses or curly braces like how links are implemented?  They
aren't taken, are they?  For example,

((red)(this text is red))
{{yellow}{this text is highlighted yellow}} ## see

What do you think?  How hard would it be to change your code to this?
Can this be merged into the development branch?

Thanks,
Vinh
