* How can I make a many-character non-POSIX (i.e. single dash signs) option list, i.e. -data file # data filename OR -data file -> data filename where the first data is highlighted as a literal, the “file” is highlighted as emphasis (italics), and the tabulation between “file” and “#” or “->” is a real tab so that subsequent lines are vertically aligned? Using standard option lists doesn’t work: 1) multiple-character options have their first letter in literal and the next ones in emphasis, which is weird. 2) some lines with arguments fail to process correctly. * As an alternative, I could enclose all lines in a literal block. But then, how can I place emphasis on some of the words within the literal block? * A 3rd possibility is do the mark-up word by word. But then, how can I insert tabs to enforce vertical alignment? thanks in advance Gary Mamon ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot
