Thx Bastien!

i look at it but it seemed highly complex (im an academic and dont know
much (well nothing tbh :) ) about programming. is there a simple way of
defining these like the GUI for org-emphasis-alist  (i used
customize-variables )
as you said i just want to highlight (BG/FG) specific areas/lines.
any help would be greatly appreciated!

best guys

Itai
