E.g. if I want to start *bold or italic within a paragraph and then terminate it* on one of the following lines. From a brief experiment it looks like you can span two lines maximum. Beyond that what is the recommended mechanism? _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
