I made presentations with org-mode + beamer quite a lot. Now and then I'd like to set a different color for some text to draw the students' attention. For example, #+begin_src org * test blah blah ... We should \textcolor{red}{NEVER} do it. .... #+end_src
As HTML5 slides are getting popular these days, I am trying org-mode + HTML5. But I find I have to keep a separate edition of org file for HTML5 slides from the beamer ones, since the color setting is quite different. Here comes my feature request: set text color in a consistent way. We may introduce a new syntax and rewrite the test org-file above as follows: #+begin_src org * test blah blah ... We should [#ff0000 NEVER] do it. .... #+end_src In the brackets, the first item is the color to be set for the rest text. And this item must start with #, followed by RGB hex numbers (css-like) or a color name. If the format is not right, we can just treat it like normal text. The syntax can be extended for setting text size as well. That is, # followed by some numbers (ie. less than 6 numbers).
