Thank you again

that works well but i think it dosent cover what i had in org. in org i use
the ♩ symbol to highlight all the text between the 2 ♩, IE

♩ALL THIS TEXT IS HIGHLIGHTED♩, currently with the above code the ♩ is
highlighted but not the text between, is it possible to do achive that with
font-lock?

i really appreciate your help!
