Maybe, if I knew how. I haven't used macros before. I read this 
<http://orgmode.org/manual/Macro-replacement.html> and tried

    #+MACRO: hi ·$1·
    Let's {{{hi(test)}}} this.

but unsurprisingly that gives the same export error, and moreover within 
Org does not show the 'highlight' formatting I associated with ·, but 
rather the macro formatting.

Or did you mean to simply use the fact that any macro gets 'highlighted' 
within Org -- so I should use something like #+MACRO: hi $1 ?

In what way? What I read here 
<https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Customizing-Keywords.html> 
seems more about highlighting particular words, not /any/ words between 
particular markers...?

Most importantly, I would like to custom-highlight text /within/ Org, to 
make my writing easier. The highlighting nor the markers have to be in 
the exported document. But if they are there, that is icing on the cake.

I figure - perhaps wrongly! - that it should be easiest to have custom 
marking like ·this· be highlighted within Org, yet be exported 
literally, without highlighting (i.e. '·' is treated just like any old 
character by the exporter)?

cheers
