emphasis inside source block?

emphasis inside source block?

[David Rogoff]

Sorry if this has been discussed but I wasn’t able to find info on it.
I have lots of source blocks in my org files (tcl, verilog, shell-script, etc).  I want to be able to highlight (e.g. *bold*) text in the code but this doesn’t work since it’s using the specified language mode instead of org mode.  Is there some way to use a minor mode within source blocks that would allow this?  It’s become a big problem in generating documentation.

Thanks,

 David

I don't think so - as any code in the source blocks can be executed
(C-c C-c) or tangled into executable code, so any markup would
interfere with these processes.

Although I do think it would be quite useful, I guess it would be
really difficult to implement in a consistent way between different
code blocks with different languages.

Cheers,

Rainer
