Subject: emacs text mode and formatting
Date: Tue, 22 Nov 2011 06:43:08 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <32872628.post@talk.nabble.com> (raw)


I have created a text file in emacs and saved the file.  I later applied
formatting, well bold, using m-o b to some text and re-saved.  But when I
re-open the text file I lose the formatting. 

I am guessing this is a restriction of the text format rather than emacs
itself.  Is there a way I can save the file so that my formatting is
retained?
