See the variable gnus-emphasis-alist, you can both see the defaults and customize it to add new patterns to highlight. Here's a sample of the defaults (the actual Lisp form is more complicated, but this should show it): '(("\\*" "\\*" bold nil 2) ("_" "_" underline) ("/" "/" italic) ("_/" "/_" underline-italic) ("_\\*" "\\*_" underline-bold) ("\\*/" "/\\*" bold-italic) ("_\\*/" "/\\*_" underline-bold-italic)) It's also important to note that only other Gnus users will see these highlights. Everyone else will just see the ASCII characters unless their MUA supports the patterns too. Ted
