[O] italicise across lines
Is there is a way to italicise across lines like /italicised text/ rather than /italicised/ /text/ For long pieces of text, italicising the ends of each line is inefficient (maybe there could be a #+BEGIN_ITALICS, #+END_ITALICS, I know of #+BEGIN_VERSE, just without the indentation without affecting verses.) Best wishes, Enda

[Not a reply to this thread, but kind of meta] What exactly are you trying to do? Please share the underlying motivation behind the series of questions you have been posting lately. Will disabling font-lock for Orgmode files accomplish what you want? If you are new to Orgmode, look at the manual, browse the mailing list and then post the questions. --

Disabling font-lock would not work because then the headings (* Headings) would not be in color.

Don't read my reply literally. I am urging you to do some navel gazing. That's what the `meta' in in my reply implied..

For a longer block you want italicized, you would likely be better off using a #+BEGIN_QUOTE...#+END_QUOTE block and then tweaking your exporter to handle putting QUOTE blocks into italics.
