A friend sent me a link to a software project he is working on which
has some very interesting ideas. A couple markup ideas in particular
intrigued me:

##text##  could be a nice shortcut equivalent to <box>text</box>
(can you see the little box in the middle of the #?)

<<text<< could be smaller/less than, ie equivalent to --text--
>>text>> could be larger/greater than, ie equivalent to ++text++

The < symbol solves the really big problem of everyone putting -- in a
comment box and then having the output get messed up...

Well, just ideas. I'm not sure the interruption is worth the trouble,
but I personally like the changes. If we switched, we would have to
design a little script to update all the -- markups and change them to
<<. But it would solve some nice problems.

The box shortcut can be implemented by just doing in a config file:

MarkUp('fmt', '##', '/##(.*?)##/se', 'BOLTMcode("$1", "box", "")');  // ##box##

Looking at the markup code, I'm wondering if we couldn't just combine
all these style markups (**++--||^^__//) into one function. Should
improve performance...

Any thoughts?

Cheers,
Dan
